As a bit of a left field alternative there’s always Vim. Ok it might not be the best introduction to text editors, but given it exists on pretty much every platform (including Android and iPhone/iPad - http://www.vim.org/download.php) there’d be no excuses for not doing the homework. The

If you're planning to teach to beginners, I also would recommend TextWrangler from Bare Bones software. It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles but is free, easy to use, and was written specifically for Macs. Won't confuse new coders and can be considered a gateway editor to introduce

There is no reason to install an editor for this purpose. Mozilla has a suite of free apps for this purpose at Webmaker: https://webmaker.org Thimble is the editor, and I think it's very nice for students that there is immediate feedback so you can see how your change affects the rendering:

I used to use Smultron (http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/15114/smultron) on my PowerBook G3. It's no Sublime text, but it does a pretty good job as far as GUI based text editors goes. I think someone forked the project and it's known as Fraise now. Depending on your computer's capabilities, that

I second Sublime and Atom (I use both for a variety of projects). They are very easy to use and the color coding is very helpful. I have also used TextWrangler, but like Sublime and Atom better (I'm currently using Atom). Michelle Michelle Chrzanowski Library Specialist II Tidewater Community

Hmmm... Are they Intel or PPC, and what OS version are they running? It seems likely that there's SOME version of TextWrangler that will work - they keep old versions around for the use of people with older OS versions. http://www.barebones.com/support/textwrangler/updates.html On Sat, May
