Building upon this list which we started at MFI: <<
Freeware, an exhaustive list>>
I just discovered another text editor previously unbeknownst to me...
Haven't tried it yet, but the website has a professional appearance anyway.
[plus, it was recommended in an ArsTechnica forum, and they're usually a critical crowd.] It seems to consist of a large amount of python scripts. [one of the other apps i mentioned in the MFI thread called "Editra" also heavily employs python.] The thing is huge... almost 40 megs for the dmg download, and almost 150 megs for the app on disk.
Anyway... into the list it goes.
