This group was for discussion of TextWrangler, Bare Bones Software's free text editor for Mac OS X.

After March 31, 2018, this group will not be accepting any new posts or subscribers.

We have sunsetted TextWrangler, and so are encouraging all TextWrangler customers to switch to BBEdit, which is identical to TextWrangler in every way that you're used to, because it's built on the same foundation from the same developers.

BBEdit offers a 30-day evaluation period, during which its full feature set is available. At the end of the evaluation period, you can continue to use BBEdit for free, forever, with no nag screens or unsolicited interruptions.

After the evaluation period, BBEdit provides a modified set of features, which incorporates all of TextWrangler's features plus unique features of its own. In the best tradition of TextWrangler, using BBEdit in this fashion costs you nothing, while providing an upgrade path to advanced features and capabilities.

We've put together a handy chart comparing BBEdit and TextWrangler, to help you out: <https://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/comparison.html>

There's also a Q&A page which contains answers for commonly asked questions about the change: <https://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/faqs.html> or if you have any questions which aren't answered there, please let us know.
