SubEthaEdit version 3.0
SubEthaEdit is probably the original collaborative text editor on the Mac allowing multiple folks to work on a document at the same time over a local network or the internet. Now TheCodingMonkeys have released version 3.0 with a new custom file format that "stores collaboration metadata and history with QuickLook support." This means that you can save and resume a collaboration session and keep all the metadata about who did what, etc. There are a variety of other additions and fixes, not least of which is "improved Leopard compatibility."SubEthaEdit is €29 (~$41) and a demo is available (educational pricing also available).

An app i use every day for various coding tasks. Just a great app.
Now only if it could compare files and point out changes between them, that would be great.

Unfortunately I don't see anything groundbreaking in this release... someone explain to me why this is worthy of a whole new number (up to 3.0) please?
Thanks

Two points: 3.0.1 is out! Also, if you paid for the previous version (2.6.x), this is a free update.

@#3 - Jason: It includes features like user stats, a new file format so you can save "who wrote what" and reopen it with any client supporting the SubEtha Engine (Coda or SubEthaEdit), and a few more features are also introduced on the homepage of codingmonkeys.de/subethaedit
Also, SubEthaEdit 3.0 is a Free upgrade, which is nice.
