Does it save Unix Text Files??
Couple of questions:
Does it save Unix Text Files??
1. Will it save Unix Text Files? Yes. The default text file format on OS X is Unix. I don't know offhand how PB handles existing files with non-Unix line endings, or mixed line endings. 2. How do I get PB to compile plain ol' C source files? One way is to choose "Standard Tool" as the project type when creating a new project. You can add your .h and .c files to this project and use the various "Build" commands in PB. Note that PB uses jam instead of make. I currently use BBedit for all of these functions and I don't know much about BBEdit. I've tried the Lite version -- which may well be a good alternate suggestion as an "organizer" app -- but I assume it doesn't hold a candle to the full version, which has a reputation as an extremely powerful and versatile programmer's editor. If BBEdit suits your needs and tastes, you probably have no good reason to change. PB doesn't do regular-expression searches; PB doesn't have configurable syntax-highlighting, and in fact does weird highlighting in .txt files; and PB doesn't auto-detect URLs in your text and make them clickable. On the other hand, I have PB running most of the time anyway; PB lets me edit rtf files (I'm only guessing BBEdit doesn't -- not as rich text -- but I could be wrong); PB is free; and I'm too lazy to learn emacs ;). --Andy

A correction and a clarification:

- Project Builder does do regular expression searches. You do it in a Batch Find (Command-Shift-F is the default key binding).Don't know how I missed that all this time. Thanks! --Andy |
