Just interested. I'm looking at alternatives to DW as it's quite pricey. I'd ideally like something open source.

weldo · 07-12-2007, 09:51

notepad ++

Hunch · 07-12-2007, 10:06

If you're asking specifically for coding (which it looks like you are), Dreamweaver or vi in a terminal.

adam c · 07-12-2007, 10:16

Ah, notepad++. I didn't realise there was a mac version. I'll check that out.

Sorry, yeah specifically for coding. I have used emacs via the terminal in the past, but it's not the best for HTML really as it doesn't have any code promts, hints or auto completes.

adam c · 07-12-2007, 10:22

Can't see a mac version of notepad++. Thought it was Windows only.

cam · 07-12-2007, 10:29

Textmate - it's the best I've used.

John Good · 07-12-2007, 14:24

yes, textmate, definitely.

maybe subethaedit if you're in a dev team

RaelRode · 07-12-2007, 14:26

I have both Textmate and Coda. I haven't bought them yet, can't really see why you'd pay €39 for a text editor. I hvae't tarted developing web stuff yet, but when I do I'd probbaly end up using the text program I made in Java lol.

soopafly · 07-12-2007, 15:14

Where's BBEdit?!

Oomlaute · 10-12-2007, 11:29

Yeah heh. I use BBedit, Go Live, & Dreamweaver

d*d · 10-12-2007, 12:29

I use Taco and subEthaEdit

proc355 · 10-12-2007, 13:05

vim in a terminal or gvim on win

adam c · 11-12-2007, 10:52

Ah Taco looks good. Doesn't do CSS though?

samuelcotterall · 03-02-2008, 05:29

TextMate, and Smultron is pretty good too.

Coops · 11-03-2008, 13:27

Aldus Pagemaker.

Do Gooder · 17-03-2008, 08:13

WordStar

adam c · 18-03-2008, 06:05

I've gone back to using smultron. Does everything I need really. Just wish it hadn't gone Leopard only.
