### "Perfect freeware text editor for Mac OS" — 5.0/5

> **Tei** | *29 March 2024* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: - It is a fully free software.&#10;- It is lightweight.&#10;- Easy to use.&#10;- Good for programming or casual use.&#10;- Simple interface.
> 
> **Cons**: - OS limitation, only available on Mac OS.&#10;- A bit hard to get support (but I doubt you will need it)
> 
> It's almost a perfect text editor for me. I have been using it daily while I'm on Mac OS. The great thing is I don't even have to spend a single penny on it\! There's no bug or any issue when I'm using it. I recommend this to everyone\!

### "When you need that extra Text editor on Mac's ... TextMate" — 4.0/5

> **Jo Ann** | *4 April 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software was the best Text Editor I found that worked well with Mac computers.  I tried at least a dozen that "said" they did what I needed, but only this one actually did it.  I am a Web Designer and in order to use any text copied from web pages, PDF's, etc. you need to paste it into a raw text editor that strips out the extra formatting that is also in the copied text.  TextMate does that for me.
> 
> **Cons**: It's not perfect.  I've found a handful of times that the copied formatting still ends up in the text within TextMate.  These are typically in special characters like quotation marks, commas and apostrophes.  What's nice though is that you can usually delete them and retype them and it will fill in the generic one that is typically used on websites.
> 
> I use it every day.  It's my go to when I need to copy a lot of text from a website so I can strip out all the unnecessary formatting that I don't need.  As I mentioned, I've tried many others, but they just couldn't do the job as well as TextMate does.

### "AN excellent text editor" — 5.0/5

> **Jesse** | *17 September 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: TextMate is a flexible, fast text editor with great features like Multiple Caret editing, Version Control, easy file Diffs and powerful snippets and bundles that make coding fast and easy.
> 
> **Cons**: Migrating from a previous version of TextMate doesn't allow migration of snippets or bundles created in a previous version\! This left our team faced with the daunting task of completely recreating all the bundles and snippets we'd creating over years of using TextMate.
> 
> Overall, my experience has been great with TextMate. It's a light, fast editor with great features and a free price tag - hard to beat. The only down side for me, and my team, was the fact we couldn't import TextMate v1 snippets into v2, leaving us with a ton of work to convert the snippets.. instead we decided to migrate to another text editor, that DOES have the ability to convert TextMate v1 snippets.

### "Best editor.... in 2017 :D" — 5.0/5

> **Martin** | *8 October 2021* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I used this editor for all development for many years. It was a great companion back in 2017. But since the rapid growth of popularity of VS Code the TextMate is becoming obsolete
> 
> **Cons**: Does not provide as many functions and plugins as VS Code
