I just bought a few licenses of SubEthaEdit1 for use in FeedLounge development. Scott and I used it for a good part of the day2 while making some optimizations for FeedLounge and it worked exceedingly well.
I remember playing with Hydra before they renamed it. At the time, it was intriguing on the collaboration side, but the editor was somewhat lacking. I’m pleased to say that the editor has matured greatly, and I can now understand why some folks use this as their primary development text editor.
Now if only it had tabbed windows…
- Making it the fourth text editor I’ve purchased for Mac OS X. It’s always good to have lots of tools in the shop. 😉 [back]
- This is one of the first times we’ve been in the same code at the same time, or we’d likely have used it sooner. [back]
This post is part of the project: FeedLounge. View the project timeline for more context on this post.
There’s also MoonEdit at http://moonedit.com/
At reboot7, SubEthaEdit was used for transcribing the sessions live. 5+ people all working on the same transcript, correcting each others mistakes, added details.
A live wiki of some sort. It was really quite something to behold!
i’ve been using SubEthaEdit as a code editor for a few months. it’s the best, lightest-weight editor i have, and i only miss a couple of features from codewarrior. i have not had a chance to try its collaboration features, however.
I’d really miss the SVN integration, file comparison tools and tabbed windows in BBEdit if I moved the SEE full time.
