WinterFest 2013: Festival of Artisanal Software for Writers

Eastgate:

These are programs with attitude, with fresh ideas and exciting new approaches. Small teams work every day to polish and improve them. If you have a question or need something unusual, you can talk directly to the people who handcraft the software.

They’re offering a 25% discount on some great Mac apps. I think we’re in a renaissance for writing and information apps, but where is the Nisus Writer of spreadsheets?

Yes, 'artisinal' software is a boon, Michael. But DevonThink barely belongs here, in my view, while EagleFiler -- your superbly robust library manager -- does. EF & BBEdit should be on any list of well-polished writer's tools.

Hear, hear (to what Peter said)! (Well, I can only speak for EF!)
