It also has a number of other little things that seem to annoy me, so I don't use it much.The other upsides of Smultron over jEdit are also quite nice - my Textpander shortcuts work perfectly, and there's on-the-fly spell checking.

Some are probably saying 'BBEdit is it, why muck with anything else?' Well, BBEdit doesn't support split windows with different files in each split, and that's probably the most important item on my list. Smultron, unfortunately, lacks this feature, but it does allow itself to be registered as the external editor for FTP/SFTP apps, such as Transmit, which is at least a halfway solution. jEdit has a very nice File System Browser that shows the directory structure and file for the currently-active directory, be it local or remote.

I use split view all the time with a CSS file open in one split, and an HTML file in another, so I can easily see the class assignments. But just one simple horizontal split is really enough for me. jEdit can actually do this vertically and horizontally, as many times as you have the screen real estate to handle.

Split a window and show a different file in each split.

And just what are these features that I find so compelling in jEdit? There are really just three things that jEdit does that seem to be somewhat unique: The recent release of version 2, however, has addressed those missing features, with just a couple of exceptions. Smultron was first released a couple years back, and showed promise but was missing some features, at least based on my needs. There's also no on-the-fly spellchecking, which I find nicer than running my completed text through a spell checker. This impacts my workflow (I have to toggle out/in of jEdit to make a new shortcut work), but the feature set in jEdit keeps me coming back. However, the main downside of jEdit is that it's written in Java, and Textpander (now TextExpander shortcuts just don't work right in jEdit (it's got something to do with the pasteboard). For many years, jEdit has been my editor of choice - not necessarily because I find its interface the prettiest, nor its features the easiest to use and figure out, but simply because it has the right combination of features I'm looking for (more on that in a bit). I'm always on the lookout for nice text editors.
