TextWrangler is a text editor, not a word processor, and there's
an important difference.  It's the bee's knees at jobs such as
complicated search-and-replaces, sorting, line numbering, and so
on, but it doesn't care much about appearance. Changing the
display font is about all you can do.  So you shouldn't consider
it as an alternative to Word, NeoOffice and the like. Nor is it
really an alternative to TextEdit or Stickies for quick-anddirty
scribbles.  Where TextWrangler comes into its own is in
logically manipulating large chunks of text. For example,
through a single dialog you could change a price list order
'SKU, price, product name' into 'product name, SKU, price', and
then use just one more dialog to sort that list by price.  There
is, of course, a learning curve. Advanced search-and-replace,
for example, is based on the Unix utility Grep. But
TextWrangler's documentation is excellent, and well-integrated
with AppleScript, so you can save processes and call them up.
