#Mac open bbedit from terminal code#
Unless the preceding code is horribly fux0red, the tag closes for you right then and there. Type the opening of a tag, type the contents, and hit Ctrl-period. You can set up a blank document, complete with DTD, and reuse it. Just type your accents, quotation marks, en dashes, and the like, select the text, hit Utilities → Translate, and watch everything turn into correct entities (for any character encoding– they’re Unicode). I see nobody is actually substantively answering the question.Īutomatic entity conversion. If you do more “native” work, then prolly another (bbedit, etc.) more gui-integrated, limited but simpler editor wins. emacs has mail and customization like nobody’s business, which are the reasons *i* like it. by unix-related, i mean, you are comfortable with unix or want to become so, and plan on using different shell commands as part of your editing/emacs-ing. If you do more unix-related work, emacs wins.
i would offer this caveat: if you are a programmer and a compulsive customizer like me, you will undoubtedly find yourself spending oodles of time customizing and extending your editor to make it just so. what felt like clumsier multi-window navigation (this is more a windows/mac gui toolkit issue than a bbedit-specific problem), and 3., it’s not very “bare-bones” any more. My bbedit disappointments now (and i haven’t used recent osx versions, so many of these may have been alleviated) are 1., utter, crushing lack of column editing (vertical/non-contiguous select) mode, 2. My favorite features (then) were good find-and-replace, preview in web browser (this was a big deal to me at the time, it’s not any more), and a few of the extras, like “prefix/suffix lines with…”. The message board kills HTML, so some URLs:

There are some fine scripts circulating, many free (I can’t recommend any but the Daring Fireball weblog occasionally flags the goodies, and I’m looking for a reason to try out bbautocomplete).

It’s already got a built-in emacs mode, so it’s not like you should feel shame.īBEdit’s cvs widget saved me hours of work at my last job since I can key-chord a checkin or update without breaking stride on whatever I’m writing. If your muscle memory favors Brief keystrokes, use those. I spend an hour on any new installation of BBEdit to configure it MY way and give it MY key chords. You should do with BBEdit what you should do with any app you intend to use for more than half an hour: Open the preferences dialog and tweak.
These days, being able to type “bbedit filename” from shell makes me giggle. At least eight of those years has been for salary, wage, and valuable consulting fees. I’ve been using BBEdit for, what, ten years? – from when it still had a DRieUxCaPS plugin.
That wasn’t OS bigotry, it was editor bigotry. I brought my own iBook to work for the duration of the last job because I couldn’t stand the editors offered on Windows.
