We say: “It doesn't suck.®” Here's what some of our devoted customers say:

  • Marshall Clow     Software Engineer


    What do you do? Principal Engineer, Qualcomm, Inc.

    When did you start using BBEdit? Heck if I know. 1993, maybe?

    What do you make? How does BBEdit help? Most of what I make is internal to Qualcomm, but I also contribute to several open source projects (www.boost.org and www.llvm.org), and I use BBEdit to edit/bludgeon into submission code, documentation, web pages, etc.

    I use BBEdit to edit/bludgeon into submission code, documentation, web pages, etc.

    What's your favorite project that BBEdit has helped bring to life? I do all my source code editing in BBEdit, and make extensive use of shell windows. Also, exuberant ctags rocks! Other projects include most everything from Aladdin (Stuffit Expander/Deluxe, etc), Adobe Acrobat (specifically, the digital signature plugin), and large swathes of Eudora.

    Which feature is your favorite? Shell worksheets. It's easy to say "the text editor" but after a while that fades into the background and you just expect that there's a rock solid high performance text editor there whenever you need it. Also the command-line tools.
