Oh, I understand why you'd want a lightweight .rtf/.doc editor. But you said "I like
TextEdit for being simple, and RTFed when needed", and that made me think you

understand that when (for example) you could use TextWrangler for plain text and Bean for
rich text. Both are simple and both have regex searches.
Yes, but I like to work with the command line (I use DTerm a huge lot) and being able to
"edit" all my simple documents is a huge plus. Plus I sometimes need to change
from text mode to rtf mode while I edit etc.
i don't follow this, so in case there's a misunderstanding, you know
TextWrangler uses "edit" on the command-line, but you're saying you
don't like TextWrangler? or do you want Bean to add a command-line tool?
My idea is that if I can do most of my work with Apple stuff then I have less
hassles regarding updates etc.
BBEdit has given me no hassles regarding updates; unlike some of the
young hipsters, it has not dropped 10.5 or PPC support
