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.

Eclipse was always slow for me.. compared to
Textpad/Scite.
And this is exactly why I still use vim as my primary editor. It goes
well with my cowboy-style coding practices. It runs everywhere. It works
over slow and/or unreliable links (Pocket PC and bluetooth/GPRS,
anyone?). And so much more. However...
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.
...TextMate is a great application that is very much in keeping with
core Mac UI guidelines. I tried using it for a few projects, and I have
to say that it's excellent. But here's what I don't like about TextMate:
it's not free. Not meaning to sound cheap and nitpicking, but how can a
tool that's trying to cater to open source developers not be free?
