Excellent text editor for programmers!
tjcyrFebruary 9, 2012
Pros
TexEdit is more of an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) than just a simple text editor. It has built-in support for just about every popular programming language and can highlight loops and keywords and typo's, etc. There is also a built-in File Compare function.
Cons
None really. People looking for a basic text editor do not need this, and the installation size is maybe slightly larger than just a basic editor, but it can definitely be used as a basic editor.
Summary
Highly recommended!
another text editor, nothign fancy or unique

Cons
bloated interface, too big and too shiny. long startup time.. nagging a lot..
Summary
this text editor is somewhat egoistic.. it stays in you way a lot..
