Although the versions included with OS X aren't the same (and some are 
missing), here's one list of nice text utilities you can use from the

At this point, no -- but I expect that the “go to” will be a TM feature 
reachable from AS. It'll be made to look like te Go to file, i.e. with 
filtering.

Yeah, learning by doing is the way to go! :)
