TextMate clearly uses 9pt that is clean and crisp. http://www.newgeo.com/web/misc/161936-textmate.png This is a windows one called coda I have some friends that use: http://www.newgeo.com/web/misc/161951-cfi%20coda.png Coda from panic seems to have the same issues as BBedit http://www.newgeo.com/web/misc/162011-codapanic.png If it is 9pt and in a font that does not have a postscript version, so, just a bitmap, like, the old standard monaco, it should show clean. Other than Entourage, I am not aware of apps that do not follow this idea. It is why I moved to Apple Mail, so that monaco 9 would not look like junk. I would love to know why BBedit made the change, if this has to do with the ATSUI issues that plague all Office products, I feel for you guys, but it would be time to move away from that stuff. -- Scott --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
