Good Text Editors

Linux

  • kate (with syntax (color) support for many languages, including Python)
  • emacs and vi of course (for old-skool cred ;)

OS X

  • Smultron (open source and solid)
  • TextMate (full-featured shareware)
  • WriteRoom (minimal editor inappropriate for working on code but great for meeting writing deadlines)
