Matt, There is a git integration. The original: http://www.idolhands.com/application-and-web-development/source-control/basic-git-integration-with-bbedit As noted, the BBRails toolkit has the more modern one. Note that I don't have personal experience with either of these. I find using the

Re: OT - Recommendations for a C-compiler?

2010-05-12 Thread Steve deRosier
If you're going to do this stuff at an university, you'll likely be using gcc anyway, so you might as well work with it. I'm not surprized that there's a fair amount of existing code in both C and C++; I'd expect there might be some older code in Fortran or some newer stuff in Python also.

Rob, While you do have to install the development tools to get Apples gcc, you don't need to use xcode. I primarily program linux console apps, linux kernel drivers and embedded firmware. BBEdit, terminal, gcc, and make work much better than an IDE for me. If you're primarily doing

Strange delete behavior w 9.5

2010-05-06 Thread Steve deRosier
I'm wondering if anyone has seen this: I was adjusting a cut-and-paste piece of code yesterday and I placed my cursor via the arrow keys right after a character I wanted to delete. I pressed the backspace and instead of deleting one character (the S in LBTF_DEB_SDIO), it deleted to the beginning

Sorry for the OT post, but this was the best place I could think of that would have some terminal gurus. I use my Mac and BBEdit primarily for embedded and linux programming. As such, I spend much of my time in terminal, sshed into various machines. As I'm sshed into many different machines at

Hi Lorin, There's a git integration for BBEdit. For some reason it's now within the Rails stuff. The original is at: http://www.idolhands.com/application-and-web-development/source-control/basic-git-integration-with-bbedit That said, I've never used it. I use BBedit extensively, but I prefer

cscope

All, I've got a new boss who insists that I use cscope. He of course is Linux-only and isn't comfortable Mac BBEdit environment. Does anyone know of a way to integrate cscope with BBEdit? Or a way to get similar functionality yet retain my beloved BBEdit? He hasn't mandated cscope, just that

There is an excellent outline specific application, that would likely do what you want in a much easier and simpler way than using a programmer's text editor: http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnioutliner/ - Steve On Sun, Feb 7, 2010 at 6:53 AM, Walter Overby spamwal...@yahoo.com wrote:

I see this all the time, and while it's fairly annoying, I've never considered it big enough to complain about. Actually, I thought it was just me. Usually what happens, is I have one project open in one window on space 3, and open another project on space 2. Then I might open a file, put it
