If you're a new Mac user and you're on Yosemite, go straight to Sublime Text 2: it's excellent, still updated, and, once your get your head around snippets (the work of minutes), you'll have a great workflow in place. I was a big fan of TextMate, but as others have mentioned, it's been stuck in a quagmire of development dead ends for more than two years and it's just not the editor it was. TextMate 2 is the better build, but it lacks a lot of the benefits you'd want on an applications on Yosemite, such as full screen to name the most obvious; TM3 isn't as intuitive as TM2 (I really missed the New from Template menu option, having built loads of my own templates).
For me, it made more sense to make the move to the more up-to-date Sublime Text than it did to rework what I had in TM2 into TM3. ST's package installer is nothing short of excellent and building snippets is far easier than creating bundles in TM3 (it was better in TM2). And please pay for it: $70 will hardly break the bank and you'll use it for years. I used TextWrangler for an afternoon and really did not enjoy the experience: it was enough to put me off the idea of BBEdit. I'm also suspicious of text editors on the App Store.
You're going to have to pay for a full version again come the next upgrade and there's just something too clean about a text editor that Apple have sanctioned into the App Store. Oh really, I missed the point? I pointed out a difference between operating systems. 'God forbid people actually pay for software they actually use.' There's only one way that can be read. Somehow you feel that I'm a lesser person because I like free software and pointed out the lack of it on OS X.
Somehow you think because I point out that difference between Windows and OS X that I must even pay for ANY software. You didn't even touch on the actual point of my post, but have the fuckin audacity to suggest that I missed the point of yours? All you did is make a point of being an asshole. People tend to use one of the following (I'm generalising here of course):. If they're from a Unix background, they'd probably stick to vim or emacs or or similar.
If they're an old-school Mac user, they probably use. Is from the same people and is a free version. People speak very highly of this but I haven't used it much myself.
It's been around forever and they recently released a major new version too. TextMate was super popular a few years back but version 2 was in development hell for a bit. It's now been open sourced and is free while in beta. Is my personal editor of choice. is the new cool. Not free but has an unlimited trial. Has the benefit of being cross-platform.
Both Sublime Text and TextMate have great ecosystems and all the packages you're likely to need. All personal taste really.
