BBEdit and its features
Sublime Text 2
Price
: $59
Platforms
: Mac OS X only
Like TextMate and BBEdit, Sublime Text 2 is a modern text editor that includes functionality like
syntax highlighting, code folding, and so on. It is a bit expensive comparatively, but it allows
for unlimited usage without disabling any features, so in effect it can be used as free software.
(However, it is
not
free, and if you use it on a continual basis, then you should purchase a license
for it.) Figure

shows Lua code being edited with syntax highlighting and line numbers.
