Re: [Bug-apl] TextWrangler, Emacs Key Bindings and GNU APL

[Peter Teeson]

Here is some additional info from the User Manual:

The first time you run TextWrangler after installation, it will offer to

install the “edit”, “twdiff”, and “twfind” command line tools for you.

You can use the “edit” command line tool to open files into TextWrangler

via the Unix command line.

To open a file into TextWrangler from the command line, type

edit <filename>

To launch TextWrangler without opening a file (or to activate the

application if it is already running), type edit -l 

You can also pipe STDIN to the “edit” tool, 

and it will open in a new untitled window in TextWrangler: 

for example, ls -la | edit 

If you just type edit with no parameters, the tool will accept STDIN from the terminal; 

type Control-D (end-of- file) to terminate and send it to TextWrangler.

Bare Bones Software makes a free text editor for Macintosh called TextWrangler.
It's a mildly stripped down version of their great BBEdit professional product which I have used for umpteen years.
The interesting thing is that it has a bunch of Emacs Key Bindings. See below for details.

Following Elias' lead with emacs I'm thinking it would be nice to make it available on Macintosh.
How should I go about that?

respect….
