04/04/2005 02:33 AMWil Wheaton and DeveloperShed are teaming up to launch igrep, the
first (and only) vertical niche search engine designed specifically
for developers. The search engine is powered from DeveloperShed's vast
array of more than five million technology-related documents,
including FAQs. Since igrep indexes only content, it can provide
developers with much more relevant content than other search engines.

BBEdit 8.0 is out
BBEdit 8.0 is out

Cory Doctorow:
BareBones is a company that makes BBEdit, the most valuable piece of
software on my Macintosh. BBEdit is a tool for writing and
manipulating text, like vi, emacs, WordPad, and other editors. But
while WordPad and TextEdit are underpowered and poorly thought-through
and while vi and emacs are briliant but complex and hard to learn,
BBEdit strikes the perfect balance between ease-of-use and power. All
of my novels and every story I've written in the past eight years has
been written in BBEdit. Every Boing Boing post I've posted (including
this one) was written in BBEdit. I've had excellent support from them
all along, and every so often, they ship a new version that inevitably
fixes whatever minor annoyances I had with the previous version and
introduces a few features that I hadn't thought of but which end up
being indispensible to my workflow.
Today, BareBones shipped BBEdit 8.0, a $49 upgrade for BBEdit 7.x
users, and I've just paid for it and downloaded it, on the strength of
new features like Text Factories, a GUI front-end to
regular-expression-based search and replace, so that you can do the
kind of thing a perl hacker does in one inscrutable line with a series
of easy-to-understand drop-down menus; the Documents Drawer, which fixes the slightly
clumsy handling of multiple windows in the current BBEdit; and the newly integrated MacOS spell-checker, which fixes the
sorely lagging BBEdit spell-checker.
BBEdit upgrades are like Christmas for me. More than any tool on my
computer, I live in my text-editor. These upgrades are major
quality-of-life enhancers for the likes of me.

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…

12/24/2004 12:09 PMIt has fallen upon me to write a review for Bare Bones' latest release
of BBEdit. As you read this I hope you will keep in mind that that I
am a programmer by trade and not a columnist. So forgive me if this
review doesn't have the same flair as something our beloved Spymac
news writers might produce.
That being said, BBEdit has been the undisputed champion in the field
of Macintosh text editors for the past 10 years. Its abundant feature
set can keep anyone from a student working on an English assignment to
a programmer developing the next great app busy and productive.
The search and replace functions in BBEdit are legendary, allowing the
writer to search and replace text within any number of documents with
a few simple clicks. Now in BBEdit 8 those features have become much
more powerful. With BBEdit's new Text Factory you can create search
and replace rules as easily as creating a smart playlist in iTunes.
With a few short clicks you can have BBEdit scouring your project
folder for all the changes you want to make in seconds. Got thousands
of files you need to check and don't have the time to wait for it to
finish? No problem, set Text Factory aside and let it search in the
background while you continue working in BBEdit.
BBEdit's new Document Drawer makes navigating through your documents
easy. Switching documents is now as easy as clicking the file name in
the Drawer. Moving files between windows is just easy. Simply drag and
drop the file name from one window's drawer to the other and you're
good to go. One of the features I really like is the ability to
option-drag a file name from the drawer to my Desktop or some other
folder for an instant copy.
Without question the feature I value most is BBEdit's Live preview of
HTML documents. Using Apple's Web Kit Framework, BBEdit will display a
live preview of your page as you modify your code. Not impressed? With
a couple of quick adjustments to your preferences BBEdit will even
display a live preview of your PHP code as well. No more
command-tabbing between Safari and back. This feature alone is bound
to increase productivity for a good number of people.
New features aside there are some negative aspects I feel I should
point out. First and foremost are the preferences. Now I realize there
is a lot that can be customized in there but it is just too easy to
get lost amongst all the options. It would be nice to see this get
simplified in the next release.
I would also like to see a little more integration between the
Documents Drawer and the Disk and FTP Browsers. Having all of your
open documents in the drawer is a powerful addition. I can't help but
think how much more potent it could be if a disk or FTP browser were
be nested inside of it. Instant access to all of your files within a
single all-knowing window. One can only hope.
Pros:
Rock solid, battle-hardened text editor
Powerful search and replace that anyone can master
Document Drawer for instant access to all of your open documents
Live preview of PHP documents
Cons:
Confusing preference panel
Document Drawer could be more useful
System Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3.5 or later

03/28/2005 12:33 PMDavid Weeks: "BBEdit is designed to edit text; it focuses solely on
letting you write and edit your words with speed and power. BBEdit is
not a word processor. It doesn't allow fancy page or character
formatting, nor does it handle graphics. But it has packed with more
useful features for text editing and manipulation than any other
Macintosh application I know."

BBEdit is a leading professional HTML and text
editor for the Macintosh. It was specifically
crafted in response to the needs of Web authors
and software developers, and has many features for
editing, searching, and manipulation of text.
Changes:
Source control now supports Subversion. A "Text
Factory" menu (and corresponding swank new Text
Factory palette) provides even easier access to
Text Factories. An "Apply Text Factory" submenu
was added in the Text menu to run Text Factory on
the current document. Over 200 improvements were
made.
