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.
hmm... if i remember right, subethaedit uses the mechanism that TM uses: you can make a ftp-client handle a file to SEE or TM and the ftp-client re-uploads the file after a save.
in addition, TM has trasmit-scripts that use the incredible dock- upload feature of transmit. if you start editing a local file which is in a dock-upload-path of transmit, uploading the file is just a keystroke away. be shure to evaluate transmit during your TM evaluation, too. and remember: most of TM functions are "hidden" in the automation-menu and the "gear"-popup.
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.
it works just this way with all major ftp-clients: transmit, cyberduck, fugu... i'm glad i can use transmit and not being bound to whatever TM could have integrated.
