BBEdit is the first programmer's editor I used. It was 1998 and I got a job at a Portland design agency who ran Linux on servers and macOS 9 on desktop. BBEdit's powerful search and replace function was also my first encounter with regular expressions. Later I switched my desktop to Linux and my editor to Emacs, but I kept returning to BBEdit for its search and replace, while I was still ramping up on Linux.
BBEdit stokes super fond memories for me and I wish the best of luck to the project into the future.
- sybercecurity 5y agoSame here (college, late 90's), but forgot it was still around until recently (sorry). A couple of years ago I was getting annoyed with the common editor used by my co-workers and searched and found BBEdit was still maintained. Got it back and still has the nice search features.
