BBEdit, TextWrangler updated

Attention, Bare Bones fans. Maintenance updates have been released for both BBEdit and TextWrangler. You can grab them both here.

Since these are maintenance updates, don't expect new features or extra bells and whistles, just a general tidying up of things. Both are free updates.

John Gruber releases BBColors 1.0

John Gruber has released a command line tool called BBColors which allows BBEdit and TextWrangler users to save, reload and even share customized color schemes. BBEdit, like many code-friendly text editors, has offered a coloring system for some time, but it still doesn't allow users to save and swap out schemes for, say, different languages or simply different days of the week. John's free utility not only brings color swapping to these app's tool belts, but he also posted a few examples to help get your feet wet. DeviantART, eat your heart out.

Instructions for installation and usage can be found on Mr. Gruber's project page for BBColors.

TextMate 1.5 reviewed

BBEdit is the grand daddy of text editors on the Mac, though I prefer TextWrangler myself. However, TextMate, a relative new comer to the scene, is getting a lot of attention from the geekier Mac folks out there. MacSlash has posted a glowing review of the app, which is making me think I need to take a second look at TextMate.

So, dear readers, what text editor do you find yourself banging away in for the most part?

3 Most used apps

NetNewsWire
logoMolly asks what 3 applications were the most used on your machine this year, and I thought I would pass along the question to you, dear readers.

First, I shall answer it:

  • NetNewsWire
  • Safari
  • TextWrangler
  • Since I am a big time blogger (or something) I read lots of feeds, and I am expected to both read them and then comment on them. This triumvirate of applications keeps my workflow flowin'.

    Tip of the Day

    When viewing folders using icon view or list view, both Command-Up-arrow and Command-Down-arrow play a special role. Command-Up-arrow moves you up to the parent folder of the currently-displayed folder.
