Bluefish supports many programming and markup languages. See features for an extensive overview, take a look at the screenshots, or download it right away. Bluefish is an open-source development project, released under the GNU GPL license. Bluefish is a multi-platform application that runs on most desktop operating systems including Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS-X, Windows, OpenBSD and Solaris. Bluefish 2.2.12 is a minor maintenance release with some minor new features. Most important is a fix for a crash in a simple search. Python 3 compatibility has been further improved. Encoding detection in python files has been improved. Triple-click now selects the line. On Mac OSX Bluefish deals better with the new permission features. Also using the correct language in the Bluefish user interface is fixed for certain languages on OSX.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to use. Nice search & replace, but cannot do multiple pgm S&R. Can load up multiple programs. Color coding of code is nice. Indenting works a little weird. Been using this product for 25 years.

Cons

  • Bug ridden. 2.2.17 (64bit) - you cannot Preview in the Browser because it is broken. No support to fix it. Bug ridden 2.2.17 (32bit) - If you backspace or delete code it cripples the mouse. Cannot scroll or click on some of the icons. You can reset the mouse by saving under File twice. No support of fix
