But I use in parallel SubEthaEdit (generaly for the blockedit features and text-encodings conversion features).

I wait the v3.7 for highlighting syntax update.

Funny that apps like BBEdit don’t have this yet. Saves me hours.

As you point out it is not as robust as TextMate, but for my purposes it is the best choice. Mostly I just want a text editor that can help to manage multiple web sites/projects (I use skEdit to update all of my pages for the classes I teach) in an intutive way. Since I don’t need anything beyond web development this is a good choice. I do wish it had integrated spell check, this causes me to have to take another step to check spelling, and I also wish it had collapsing code. However the developer is extremely helpful, and has said that a future version will contain collapsing code (and with free lifetime upgrades…) Ultimately text eidtors I think come down to a matter of preference and how you use them, but for me and others who want to use a text editor in the same way (that is mostly for web stuff) this is one of the best choices. (In fact I put it in my top ten.)
