Smultron Text Editor

Good developer's editor

Smultron is a text editor for developers that supports syntax colouring for a big number of languages. It is very useful to make fast changes on source code files.

TextWrangler (recently updated to 2.3) is another good editor, but Smultron has an intuitive and simple interface with a lot of hidden features. Unfortunately Smultron has an ugly (for me) icons set, but Gaetan Ark built a patch to resolve this problem.

Hidden preferences:
some parameters of the application could be changed only using terminal, If you don't make this modification:

defaults write org.smultron.Smultron KeepEmptyWindowOpen -bool NO

Smultron will keep the project window open after the last document within has been closed.

Here there is a list of the most important features

Smultron can be downloaded from here or using this direct link (v. 3.3)
Here there is the patch to change the default icons.

    Io invece uso un set di icone creato da Susumu su MacThemes. È bellissimo e ne custodisco gelosamente una copia!
