BBEdit 8.0
BBEdit 8.0 has been released. There’s a whole boat-load of new features, with the main improvements being :
- Text Factories — run multiple scripts against multiple files and folders.
- Documents Drawer — long awaited and very welcome.
- CSS — much improved markup tools (also integration with HTML Tidy)
- Server Preview — previewing server-side code (e.g. PHP & JSP)
- Workspaces — restore palettes and menus to saved positions.
- Unix tools — enhanced
bbeditcommand line tool.
I’ve been using BBEdit nearly every working day for the last 4 years or so, so it’s like preaching to the masses with me, but it’s still good to see the developers improving the application.
The only downside is the updated logo — which looks a bit naff. Ah well…

Yeah, the logo’s gone a bit ‘Comic Sans’ hasn’t it?

Defo. I reckon they should have a word with Jon Hicks about a new logo...
Also forgot to mention some of the new codeless language modules in BBEdit 8 (they were previously complied in C and C++). John Gruber has written one for Apache Configuration files which provides snytax colouring for comments and keywords in .htaccess and .conf files –
