What's new in this version:

TextWrangler now limits the size of the font used in the printed page headers. The default maximum size is 14 point. You can adjust this from the command line if desired by specifying a different size as follows:
defaults write com.barebones.textwrangler Printing:MaximumHeaderFontSize 18
Added "self" to the list of colored Python keywords.
Fixed bugs in the FTP Open dialogs and FTP Browsers when trying to follow symlinks on SFTP servers.
Worked around an OS behavior which caused window proxy icon drags from Cocoa applications to act as if the command key was held down when they were dropped in a text view.
Fixed bug in which negated file filter tests (e.g. "File Name Does Not End With") didn't work on Intel machines.
Fixed a bug where the Paste command appeared disabled in Navigation Services dialogs.
Fixed bug in which markers created on PowerPC machines loaded up as garbage characters on Intel machines. Note that as a result of this change, if you're running on an Intel machine and you previously corrected the markers, you'll need to correct them one last time.
Worked around a bug in the OS in which application printing settings were handled inconsistently when printing presets other than "Default" were in use. Now, the application's settings always populate the "Text Printing" settings, regardless of what preset is used.
The "Print Selection Only" option in the Print dialog should have been disabled when there was no selection; now it is.
Fixed rubber-stamp rotation when printing on Intel machines.
Corrected an omission where it wasn't possible to specify the window position signature for Mach-O floating tools.
Fixed crash which could occur when opening the About box after having previously used the font panel.
Fixed an off-by-1 bug in the quoted text rewrapper where it didn't use all of the characters alloted to each line when rewrapping.
the PHP function scanner how handles classes that implement interfaces:
Fixed a bug in which performing certain edits with "Remove leading white space from indented line" (Editing: General) turned on would result in a crash; at times the crash wouldn't occur until some time after the edit had taken place.

It's not only coders that can get benefit from TextWrangler. As a Journalist I use it for all my writing.
It's fast to open, easy to navigate and all that formatting nonsense doesn't get in the way of the free flow of ideas.
Thanks to Bare Bones for making it available.

New version seems good. FTP box looks different but works well. Will review after I've used it more.

TextWrangler is intuitive and powerful, very very grateful it exists. My boss is actually pleased with me today as I saved him hours of deleting line numbers by hand�
