I'm really really picky about my editors. I've used Textpad on Windows
forever, and recently SCite. What I look for in an editor is that the
toolbar is slim, but I have a lot of options under hood.

For me, those "options" have to be the ability to change these things
per file type:

        syntax coloring
        tab/space stop/size
        default encoding (UTF8, UTF16, OEM, Latin)
        default endings (LF, CRLF, CR)
        write/or not write the BOM (Byte Order Marker)

This last 3 always seemed to trip me up in Eclipse/EPIC inthe early 3.0
days...and of course, Eclipse was always slow for me.. compared to
Textpad/Scite.

Back when I owned a working mac (91-96), I was BBEdit all the way.
And when I get my next Mac, I'm sure I'll be all about TextMate.
