This is probably a question I should know the answer to.

I need to access a simple, lightweight text editor to do a little bit of HTML authoring/ tidying. Textedit renders HTML, so this isn't what I want. I used to use BBEdit, but this seems to be only commercial now, and I don't need it enough to pay $125.

What are the alternatives?
