Subject: Pepper 3.5.1
Pepper 3.5.1 has been released, this is a bug fix release, fixing a few
small problems introduced with Pepper 3.5. One new feature was added:
support for Anarchy's 'Edit with...' command.
Pepper is an editor targeted at programmers, script coders and HTML writers,
but since it is such a powerful and yet easy to use tool you can use it for
any task that involves working with plain text.
Among the unique features offered by Pepper are:
*intelligent and extendable language support through addons with syntax
styling as opposed to mere syntax coloring. Currently supported languages
are: HTML (with JavaScript and PHP embedded), C/C++, Pascal, Oberon-2, Perl,
Python, Rez, Shell, TeX
*identifier completion
*incremental search
*ToolServer integration with stderr parsing
*extensions and script extensions (apply a perl script to a selection e.g.)
*fully configurable keybindings
*rectangular selections
*FTP open/save
And of course Pepper offers all the features available in other major
commercial text editors currently known on MacOS.
Pepper is a descendant of the popular Pe for BeOS, an editor that has been
used extensively by many, not only to write code but also novels and other
books (Neal Stephenson and Scot Hacker e.g.). Pepper is more than a port, it
offers many new features and interface enhancements when compared to its
predecessor.
System requirements for Pepper are a PowerMac running MacOS 8.6.
Pepper is sold as shareware, single license fee is USD 45, site license is
USD 400 and upgrades from Pe for BeOS are available at USD 25.
