BBEdit 7.1 adds SFTP


Bare Bones Software today announced the release and immediate availability of , its flagship text and HTML editor. It adds support for SFTP, FTP and SFTP server discovery via Rendezvous, and "Preview in BBEdit" live HTML rendering, which allows customers to view a rendering of their HTML code under construction, in a window which automatically updates as the code is changed. This feature takes advantage of Apple's WebKit technology (requires Mac OS X 10.2 with Safari installed or Mac OS X 10.3). It can also open/save files on SFTP servers via the same standard menu commands used for FTP and also provides a new Rendezvous pop-up menu allowing easy selection of local servers.

    BBEdit FTP/SFTP is so slow and anti workflow. Transmit -> BBEdit -> Autosave to Transmit is much better. Hint Hint Barebones.

    I agree with y0

    It stings me like a fissure in my a** to talk yang about my favorite program, but BBEdit's FTP handling could be so much more transparent, fast, and smoove. If only it was like OS X's finder FTP. Hah. It's all bad. Blaahhh.

    BBEdit and Interarchy

    ... yeah, interarchy is the best but I'm too cheap to buy it (or Transmit) so RBrowser Lite suffices.

    SFTP support

    2 lil 2 late?
    not 2 fast or 2 furious?

    stop whining, it's a free upgrade!
    Transmit rocks, but native SFTP offers recent files menu.

    Hmmmm

    Everyone is bitching about the FTP support... but, what about the fact that WebCore is accessed to preview web pages? That sure seems like a damn good thing to me. Sure doesn't suck.

    I love sftp support

    I've been waiting for the Finder to support SFTP since I wasn't getting it with BBEdit, and I couldn't overwrite files on my sftp based webserver. Now with SFTP support, the problem is no longer! Who is complaining about speed? Go get a 1.33 Ghz Powerbook G4. Can't complain one iota. In Panther it rocks!
