I have been using BBEdit for years -- I don't know what you mean by snippets -- probably my lack of knowledge -- there are a lot of features. One BBedit feature I really like is the ability (within BBEdit) to execute a Perl script or a Unix shell script and see the results displayed in BBEdit. I use the Perl feature all the time to validate complex regexps, before copy pasting them into CF or JavaScript. On the other hand, JEit has some nice features, too -- Folding your code (Collapsing indentations) so yoy can get an overview, And the SQL Plugin allows you to highlight some SQL syntax (in a CF template) and execute it against an available database -- no copy/paste necessary. The results are shown in a popup window. BBEdit is more Mac-Like because everything where Mac users expect it to be. Difficult choice!
