We started using BBEdit 6.0 in the shop today. Two minor things have cropped up causing us to retool our daily coding rituals. BBEdit now requires the Mac OS 9 keychain feature in order to save FTP server passwords. I understand the need to improve the security for this part of the program, but it means an OS upgrade if we want to talk advantage of it. Bummer. The other issue is that the new, robust syntax coloring of attributes within HTML tags simply makes my eyes hurt. At least we can tweak it preferences, but the default settings are amazingly unusable. Other than that, no other complaints so far. I’ll be posting stuff we like about BBEdit very soon.
