I've tried out Pepper from http://www.hekkelman.com. Very similar to BBEdit
in a lot of ways, and has some really nice perl integration, and is
carbonized & very customizable. It also has perl-compatible regular
expressions, using the PCRE library, and only costs $45.
If I wasn't waiting for the carbonized BBEdit (any word on when, Jim?) I'd
probably buy it - it seems very capable. So far I haven't found anything
that it can't do that BBEdit can (all I do is perl programming). If the
time comes that the only classic app I need is BBEdit, then I'll probably
switch.
I didn't continue using the demo because the demo has a really annoying
"wait 5 seconds before saving" feature, and because I'm not quite ready to
switch to OS X. (Need wavelan drivers for my powerbook.) But it's worth a
download & a look-see.
Note that I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I was just impressed with
the product. I still like BBEdit better, but not enough to stick with OS 9.
