The most popular text editor/IDE on Mac OS X

TextMate is a general-purpose GUI text editor for Mac OS X. It provides users with innovative abstractions to support declarative customizations which are at once transparent and flexible. Though its users are mostly programmers, and its basic feature set has a steeper learning curve than simpler graphical editors, TextMate is much easier to customize than many other text editors. Notable features include tabs, recordable macros, folding sections and snippets, shell integration, and an extensible bundle system, all built around its novel scope system. TextMate 1.5 won the Apple Design Award for best developer tool in 2006.

    The best text editor out there. Great for writing code and a must-have tool for Ruby on Rails development.

    Si te encanta aprender combinaciones y atajos para ser ultra-productivo, textmate es para ti, una gran cantidad de aƱadidos y sets de funciones llamadas bundles extienden su uso para convertirlo en una herramienta para programadores impresindible.

    Better program for that price I can not imagine.

    Gerbuiksvriendelijk nice and stable. An additional advantage is that the program is very light. Quick start (similar to Text Editor) and you can also manage another project along.

    Was an early user of Textmate and loved it. Tried several IDE's for coding and still come back to TM every time. Even if it lacks things like native code-completion and docblock info-popups, it's still a superb editor!

    Among my top appreciated mac apps.
    It's always open. It's just that I am currently not TextMate literate enough to use it closer to its full potential.
