Hi Emma,
BBEdit, Text Wrangler, or TextMate are all decent choices for editing
text/code on the Mac. R highlighting (as well as for many other languages) is
available for all of these editors.
Cheers,

Hi Emma,
I don't know really. I always use the built-in editor that comes with R.app
which I've found useful enough (no split screen but some highlighting plus
piping selected code with apple+enter).
But as it turns out there's a whole discussion about text editors on the
r-sig-eco email list
Hi Emma
I use the R GUI that you can download from the R project page. Ive also
used Emacs with the add-on Emacs Speaks Statistics, which has some good
R-friendly features. My Emacs editor of choice is Aquamacs aquamacs.org,
which has a bit more Mac-like interface and key bindings.
Cheers,
Mark
Emma,
I assume you are interested in a GUI text editor (e.g. one with menus) and not

basic text editor that also came with your Mac. Or look at
