2. TextWrangler for editing files directly on the server or locally
I hadn't heard about TextWrangler before now. What (besides the low
low price) made that the one to use?
I know I gravitated towards it when I first went back to using a Mac
because I had fond memories of using BBEdit years ago.
BBEdit has a great slogan, btw: "It doesn't suck." Once upon a time,
it was the only decent programmer's editor on the mac platform.
So when I first picked up a MacBook Pro a few years back, I went
looking for BBEdit, noticed there was this free TextWrangler thing,
and gave it a shot. It's got a nice feature set, while remaining
fairly lightweight, and it just works.
I tried going to Eclipse a few times, but i always found myself
fighting over one thing or another (managing remote files was a big
one). So I went back to TextWrangler.
These days, I still use TextWrangler daily for quick changes via SFTP
to remote systems.
For real development work, running on my local AMP stack, it's usually
Coda (for the past few weeks)
