This is the default behavior in iOS. Try it for example in Apple's Notes app.
To bring up the keyboard, tap on the editor once. You can then select text while the keyboard is open.
If instead you double-tap on the editor to select text while the keyboard is closed, the keyboard will not come up - you will only be able to copy the selected text. This is done so you can just copy some text without bringing up the keyboard.

How to install TextMate themes is described in the manual: http://www.textasticapp.com/v4/manual/lessons/How_can_I_add_my_own_syntax_definitions__themes_and_templates.html
I added it to my todo list.
