#Bbedit 10 update#
I still have to update the read me file, but the scripts work with BBEdit 9 and 10, and on 10.5, 10.6, and 10. You can add hotkeys to any command (including your own scripts). Try it (30 day I have some AppleScripts that provide integration with a previewer (Skim), including backward search (cmd-shift-click in the PDF, and jump back into the source, I still find this very cool). It'd be nice to hide the HTML stuff when you're not working on HTML. I miss some of the bundles for Python coding I've built up although honestly many of those I could easily add via Applescript with a minimum of kludge. I have other programs for that.īBEdit also doesn't handle code coloring for Applescript (surprisingly). It also gives writers the ability to fold content, easily navigate long documents, find differences between drafts, and more. I do wish it had Git in addition to CVS and Subversion. BBEdit is a text editor that’s been around for over twenty-five years and bears the laudable trademark: It doesn’t suck.® It has the essentials: spell-checking, word count, split-screen view, Markdown support, and backups. I rarely have files that big and would love to be able to shrink it somewhat. When you enable it you have about 5 digits of size. Thus far in the half hour I've been playing with it my main complaint is the size of the line number area on the left. (I'll play with it a while for the 30 day demo - something may come up I don't like)Ĭode completion is much better than Textmate in terms of UI but it doesn't do the full templating that TM's bundles do - which is arguably TextMate's coolest feature.
#Bbedit 10 upgrade#
I still prefer TextMate's minimalist vibe but I'll probably upgrade to BBEdit soon. I constantly curse TM over no split window panes. The biggest plus over Textmate is full Applescript support and split windows. So I use Xcode for Objective-C and TextMate for editing reStructuredText (ATPM and my product manuals), but BBEdit for practically everything else. Some of my main missing features from BBEdit 9 still apply: no TextMate-style “Go to File” within a project, no Git support, underpowered codeless language modules, minimal Xcode integration. Textmate can't do that (it only indents to tab stops), and it really looked like bbedit couldn't either.Īm I wrong? Do I get to drop $40 on a terrific editor? (in case non-fixed-width destroys that, arg1 and arg2 are indented to be even with the first quote character). Specifically, emacs left-justifies function call arguments, so if I say "printf("this is a format string", arg1, arg2, arg3) " with some line breaks, it looks like: I use emacs on a linux system, which has an idiosyncratic indentation system it looked to me from 5 minutes of playing that BBEdit didn't have any indentation for C++ at all. Thing is, Textmate's getting (very) long in the tooth, so if BBEdit can do latex I'm sold.Ģ) Code indenting. I use Textmate, which has a hotkey "latex this and show me the preview" ability.

I'd like to know if I'm missing somethingġ) LaTeX integration. I was looking at BBEdit, but it seems to be missing two big features I'd really like.
