For years I’ve been using the fantastic editor SubEthaEdit for all my development work in OS X. I use it for pretty much everything: editing html, text files, code perl and php stuff, but I’ve always missed good perl integration. It has been anoying to switch to a terminal window just to debug perl code when php editing is so swift.
A few days ago I stumbled over Affrus and it was love at first sight.
Affrus offer stepped execution with breakpoints and a whole bunch of advanced features that I miss from the well built Borland ide’s back in the DOS-days. The registration cost is almost $100 – but I’m happy to pay that when the evaluation period is over!

hmm,. I’m going to try SubEthaEdit later. getting back into C++ so that might be nice compared to used nano. although I enjoy staring at a terminal hehe.
you know of anything like Affrus that handles C++? I might get into perl more later on and will be interesting in giving this Affrus a shot though.

SubEthaEdit is great, check it out
For C++ – have you tried Apples XCode?
It’s huge but might be what you are looking for (it’s also free).

is xcode an IDE? I think I have downloaded some of this before, at least gcc etc from this site…

nm i found it. it just didn’t end up in /applications so quicksilver wasn’t finding it.
