TextMate
Last edit September 16, 2014
TextMate
is a popular text editor for Mac OS X. It is developed by
MacroMates
http://macromates.com/
. It comes with code markup for most programming languages, and a built in integration with subversion and X-Code's compilers, and it looks sexy. It is highly extensible with macros and "snippets" which are like shell expansions.
TextMate
is kind of like Emacs and OS X had a baby.
TextMate
is open source (but you are still required to pay for a license)
It is released under the GPLv3 (but patches must be
PublicDomain
so the author and his friends can use them in
ClosedSource
projects)
