First Look: BBEdit 8. It’s Good, It’s Better, With A Problem Or Two.

There’s no doubt about it. I like BBEdit and I use BBEdit. It’s come from a slick but simple text editor to a clean text editor that edits any kind of text, and does so much easier than Command Line Interface tools (CLI) such as Pico or vi or Emacs.

Is BBEdit 8.0 a Swiss Army Knife of editing tools? It’s beginning to look that way.

Don’t get me wrong. There’s not much to not like about BBEdit 8.0. It handles HTML with ease; even XHTML versions, WML versions and more..... (excerpted).
