Uh, is this the BBEdit addict recovery place?  I too was a BBEdit power 
user. Now, the only thing I use BBEdit for is find/replace 
functionality.  In my mind, that's just about the only thing that 
TextMate loses out on when compared to BBEdit.  The multi-file 
find/replace functionality, the ability to exclude certain files with 
certain extensions, the ability to save search patterns, many of the 
Text menu commands that I've yet to find a replacement for in 
TextMate...  TextMate ain't far off but I still switch to BBEdit for 
complicated searches and for things like sorting lines, processing 
duplicate lines, and processing lines containing certain patterns. 
Maybe TextMate already has 'em and I'm just haven't located it?
