Favorite Mac text editor?

by Bryan Duke · in iTorque 2D · 01/19/2009 (10:08 am) · 11 replies

So far I've been using jEdit for all my iTGB work, but I'm curious what others are using. Anyone know if there's a BBEdit plugin for TorqueScript? I own Torsion (still only available for the PC), but I really want all my dev work on one machine.

I use TextMate. There is also a TextMate plugin that recognizes Torque (http://thinkyhead.com/pub/Torque2DForTextMate.zip).

I am using Parallels to run Torsion in a Windows VM. So far works pretty well.

I'm using Eclipse (it's free) with a Torque scrip syntax highlight plugin that I found somewhere on the TDN.

I used Eclipse and it did the job.
But now I'm using Parallels and Torsion. it's way better, just not free.

Ok, good idea running Torsion under a VM. They've been promising a Mac Torsion forever. It sure would be nice...

I'll look into Eclipse too. Thanks!

I submitted a game to Apple last week and every line of TorqueScript was written in vi. I must be getting old!

Parallels + Torsion here too

Bryan: There were things that were even partially working in a beta version that the Torsion users sadly still are waiting for.
For the "officially pushed" script editor, thats seriously bad out of my sight.

I use Smultron for everything. It's like Kate on Linux. If I could embed it in Xcode, I'd be in heaven :)
(It's just an editor, with sessions. That's it.)

I agree TextWrangler rocks and you can't beat the price. Honestly Xcode is a great editor too. I love vi too, but I haven't been able to find a decent mac version of vi (ala gvim on Windows / Linux).
