[R] Mac Text editors

[Emilio López]

Hello,
I am not a Mac user, but I use Eclipse+StatET in both Windows and
Linux, and it is the best IDE (not just text editor) for me. It
supports code syntax, R and Sweave editors, object explorer, document
outline, debugging, ... Besides, Eclipse has other plugins that may be
useful for some tasks in R (web programming, xml, LaTeX, ...)

It is supposed to run also in Mac, but I have not tested it.

Good luck!

Once I started using Notepad ++ on my windows machine, I really began to like it.  Unfortunately, I'm not sure what the free text editor options are for the Mac (Notepad ++ is windows only).  I've dabbled with Linux before and used Emacs/ESS there.  However, I seem to remember fighting pretty hard to make that work and the OSX file structure isn't that intuitive to me yet.  (For example, where is my .emacs file?)
