There's TextWrangler (free, http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/ http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/), Smultron (free, http://smultron.sourceforge.net/ http://smultron.sourceforge.net/) and BBEdit ($125, http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.html http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.html). They're all popular.
I'm a Textmate user though. I don't mind that there have been delays in releasing 2.0, because it doesn't make 1.5 any less useful — it does everything I want it to do and it's still supported.
- ryanpetrich 16y agoFraise is a continuation of the now abandoned Smultron.
- wazoox 16y agoThanks for the tip, really nice! And lightweight... I can't stand these editors that need 45s to launch.
- jlmendezbonini 16y agoThanks for the tip but browsing through the site I found a post stating that the maintainer is thinking on starting from scratch: "...I am currently thinking of starting a completely new text editor that will not be a fork anymore, but a proper and independent software..." http://www.fraiseapp.com/index.php?page=news&id=12 http://www.fraiseapp.com/index.php?page=news&id=12 [EDIT] better link
- sigzero 16y agoUltraEdit is making a Mac version as well. It is in the beta stages. So far I am liking it (as a beta tester). I also use MacVim (my go to) and BBEdit.
- colomon 16y agoSeriously, with 2.0 planned as a complete overhaul, I don't even know how quick I'd be to switch to it if it came out tomorrow. TextMate 1.5 + the Ack bundle already does very nearly everything I want -- my only desire would be slightly better Perl 6 support.
