[QUESTION] Best editor for Apple?

[a.greene]

Notepad++ is unavailable for Apple, what else are people using?

I use Textwrangler on my ancient laptop. The newer, better version is BBEdit.

I use the built-in TextEdit. Which is terrible, since it doesn't even have line numbering, but most of the time all you're doing is working with text.

When I move on to the debugging stage, I'll copy into TeXShop. That's a free code editor designed for the TeX family of typesetting languages, and the basic code editor functionality like line numbers are there. And I already had that lying around, so no extra effort.
