I literally miss one feature of BBEdit: multi-file search... However, I see no point in complaining about this since I can add a bundle for it at any time.
Oh, I so wish you would do that, James; is now "any time"? ;)
Seriously tho, lately I've been using grep to do multifile searches since it's too much effort within TextMate, and it's not worth firing up BBEdit for. I usually have one or two files open rather than a project, and usually my multi-file searches are within a folder associated with another project completely. I only need to do this a couple times a week so it's not too annoying, but it would be nice if I could search a given directory like BBEdit.
Things keeping me from loving TextMate even more than I already do: - better multifile searches - side-by-side diff (love BBEdit!) - better handling of very large files - split views - chunked undo
And to be fair, just a few of the things I love about TextMate: - editing is fun - amazing syntax hilighting for all the languages I work with and many more as well - snippets - it's really smart - incredible support (see thanks below) - bundles beyond count - creating my own snippets, commands and macros EASILY! - it's constantly being updated (program and snippets both) - the screencasts
Many thanks to Allan and the many people creating and maintaining bundles, you really have created the best text editor out there (IMHO).
