Slightly off topic, but jEdit is an excellent editor on OSX. I'd highly recommend it.

I wrote a little guide about my jEdit setup a while back: http://dhotson.tumblr.com/post/443485667/making-jedit-awesom...

I used jEdit for many years on linux and windows, but development has been stalled for a long time. Presumably moment dropped off quickly after the author Slava moved on to other projects. It's a shame. I'm trying http://www.vicoapp.com/ instead these days. Not as good as jEdit, but at least people are actively maintaining the code.

I think you'd be surprised. It's picked up a bit over the last year or two. The jedit-users list is still reasonably active.
