Uh I actually don't care about cost. Every text editor I've used EXCEPT textmate can do this. BBEdit, SkEdit, SubEthEdit, any of the decent ones.
I mean who actually is editing files that ARE NOT going to end up on the internet? Every file I edit is going onto the internet, so allowing me to edit them and save would be a huge boost. It's the only reason for buying any text editor. Especially an "editor for the 21st century" that doesn't have internet capability.
I'd like to buy textmate, but I won't until it has some sort of integration like this. Right now I have to download the file, edit it, reupload it, I'd just like to hit "Save" and know that it's saved onto the remote server automatically.
Have you contemplated using subversion instead? You can set up a cron job to regularly update a checked out version on the server. Then all you need to do is commit your file and it will show up on the server.
As a bonus, you get free backups. :-)
