Title: Re: Plain text editor
| Thanks Carlos,
Looks like I was all screwed up.
Smile apparently remembers previous runs and was giving me screwy results.

Hi,
Since Lion won't allow Tex-Edit Plus I need to find another text editor to create plain text documents.
TextEdit is a logical choice but it looks like it can't handle tabs.
Pages and Word add so much garbage to be useless.
Looks like TextWrangler can't deal with tabs either.
Any other choices, Cheap?
TIA,

Hi Robert, maybe I’m not understanding correctly what you mean, but I open TextEdit, new document, Menu Format: make plain text and I write Carlos Ysunza Photographer each word is separated by a Tab and seve it.
Than I scrip:
set f to alias "MacPro:Users:cysunza:Desktop:tabText.txt"
set miText to read f
set oldTID to AppleScript's text item delimiters
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {tab}
set tin to text items of miText
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldTID
-->>{"Carlos", "Ysunza", "Photographer"}
Carlos Ysunza B.
