About

Bluefish is a powerful editor targeted towards programmers and web developers, with many options to write websites, scripts and programming code. 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.

About

API is first-class, discoverable, versioned, documented. MessagePack structured communication enables extensions in any language. Remote plugins run as co-processes, safely and asynchronously. GUIs, IDEs, web browsers can, embed Neovim as an editor or script host. Works the same everywhere, one build-type, one command. Modern terminal features such as cursor styling, focus events, bracketed paste. Built-in terminal emulator and strong defaults. Fully compatible with Vim's editing model and Vimscript v1. Start with :help nvim-from-vim if you already use Vim. The current stable release version is 0.5 (RSS). See the roadmap for progress and plans. With 30% less source-code than Vim, the vision of Neovim is to enable new applications without compromising Vim's traditional roles. Lua is built-in, but Vimscript is supported with the most advanced Vimscript engine in the world (featuring an AST-producing parser).

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

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I used it to develop Java and c++. I loved the speed and flexibility and the fact that no mouse is needed and you can have a very fast and efficient workflow using the keyboard with easy to remember neumonic s (like SF to search files) rather than holding down lots of different modifiers that are hard to remember. The editor is the focus and temporary popups are used for searching for things, call hierarchy, errors etc so you aren't rearranging splitter positions all the time. The errors were shown instantly as I typed and I could even launch my application when while it had compile errors and my refactoring was not finished. Much better than the workflow in intellij for example.

Cons

  • There is some investment time needed to learn it initially but the power and flexibility it gives you is worth it in the end.
