BBEdit 11
BBEdit 11 is a great update with lots of good changes. Some of my favorites:
- There’s now a single window for Find Differences instead of three, and it’s easier to see which files have changed.
- “Highlight instances of selected text” sounds kind of odd but ends up being incredibly useful.
- Text colors are more configurable, and you no longer have to retype the name of a color scheme after editing it.
- Different languages can now have different default fonts.
- Documents now have a Super Get Info–style popover.
- There are new search commands: “Extract” and “Replace All in Selection.”
- Clippings are more orthogonal to languages. The new Clippings system is much more flexible.
- You can now create text filters with custom, xib-specified user interfaces.
- There’s now an easy way to add keywords to the built-in languages.
- The application is transitioning to Cocoa, but—unlike in Xcode and some other Cocoa apps—unsmoothed text still looks good.
