Absolutely -- a good editor is worth a lot! Besides, most of us edit a bunch of other kinds of text files, so getting to know a good editor is very useful.

It's Python mode isn't great either -- Barebones simply doesn't want to believe that indenting is a key feature! That being said, I use it a lot, it's really pretty nice and full featured.

I personally use Pepper, but it's no longer supported.

I know. bummer. It had such promise.

I'm still looking  for a modern replacement that I like as well.

Check out Peppy:

It's not totally mature yet, but it's under active development:

and definitely headed in the right direction.

It'd be great to get some more Mac users on board...
