Personally I find Transmit less garish than it was, […] I have Forklift too for FTP, which is much more reduced than Transmit but … if you’re not paying attention and have a lot open you can mistake the window for the Finder which isn’t a problem with Transmit.
The Transmit window(s) is/are fine as is, column view and all. I am less happy with the checkboxes on the inspector pane, but that is a minor issue. The horror is in the sheet that pops up for every other (trans)action.

Re: What Texteditor do you use for TXP-Tags?
I use Sublime Text at the moment. Been through a heap of code editors and this one has stayed the longest. I don’t have any syntax highlighting for .txp files in it but I don’t edit them that much offline.
I’ve also installed Visual Studio Code at the recommendation by another developer I met recently. It looks okay but I haven’t invested much time in using it so it’ll probably just rot unless I find a compelling reason to switch from Sublime.

I never knew about Sublime. just downloaded it. So far i like it.
That area to the right which is a small pane of the file is kind of weird. i’ll see if it can be toggle it off.

It has its foibles, but it’s largely a good piece of kit. The multi-select-and-instant replace feature is pretty neat. It’s fairly standard now in editors but highlighting something and hitting CTRL/CMD-D to select each successive matching entry in the file, then hitting escape puts you in Multi Edit mode where you can alter all those selected entries at once.
Same with Alt-clicking and dragging to select the middle of a bunch of lines and edting all of them at once. Great for prefixing stuff. And suffixing works well if you select the last character and alt-drag down; it selects the last character of every row, regardless of how many characters are in it (ragged-right select). Very neat.
Some of the plugins are superb. Git gutter is brilliant as it shows you changed lines in the editor via red/yellow indicators and allows you to roll back changes or view diffs right there in the editor. DocBlockr is great too. Type a function in, put the cursor above it and enter /** then tab/enter and it creates a doc block above the function with as much info as it can autofilled from the function you typed.

Re: What Texteditor do you use for TXP-Tags?
Thanks for your input everyone. To summarize, the following Editors have been suggested and are used by the Textpattern community for TXP tags.
- BBedit
- Atom
- Coda
- Sublime Text 3
- Notepad ++
- Textmate
As I have mentioned, I can easily set up a snippet in Textmate with Stopvariables ( unlimited).
The commands I have do not work at the moment in Textmate2 ( I’ll net to contact support ).
Regards.Marios
