In the MacBreak video podcast (#96) for 12/12/2007, Leo features his fav text editors & overwhelming votes for textmate while giving an idea of its capabilities as well as history.........
As someone that did his entire PhD (writing - in latex, running R, Sweave, stata etc..) all within textmate I would be remiss not to thank all those that are continuously developing textmate & the supporting bundles - Alan, Charilaos, Hadley, Brett, Kevin, Allan Schussman, just to mention but a few of many people whose bundles have been helpful....
I am now getting into experimenting with new experimental bundles - eg Hans R daemon which seem as if they will be making me even more productive during 2008..
Thanks to y'all that are behind textmate & all its associated bundles.... & best during 2008!
