This trick works with many file formats."Įdit: to open a doc in a different program, right-click on it and choose "Open With" if the program you want isn't there, go down to "Other…", and from that drop-down pane, browse for the program. Use TextWrangler to read the file, get rid of the “garbage” characters and recover your text, all in just a few minutes.

#TEXTWRANGLER SFTP FREE#
You might try Apple's own TextEdit and something like TextWrangler, which is free and heavy-duty and handles more or less anything I throw at it.
Also highly unlikely to do anything, but it's worth a shot.
You might also try opening them in a plain text editor, with and without a change in the extension. It's the longest of long shots, but before you abandon the file it might be worth checking, just for kicks. think it was Word's best attempt at salvaging largely-incompatible files. After I panicked, I messed around a little bit and wound up changing the font, for reasons I can't now reconstruct, and between that and viewing it as html, I managed to get all the body text as well as the footnotes to show up. Still I have come to appreciate how powerful a text editor vim is.You're 100% positive it's an empty document? I ask only because I had some very old but very important files that would open in Word but didn't appear to have content. I have not used it heavily enough to be a advanced user, I need a cheat sheet for anything besides the basic commands to edit, move around and search etc. vimrc (settings) file that I copy to any server I use. When I’m in the Terminal on a remote server I prefer the text editor vim. It also big and a bit cumbersome, I think. I have also tried Eclipse on recommendation from other Drupal developers and it has some very handy debug features. I have tried it but for some reason or another I prefer BBEdit.
#TEXTWRANGLER SFTP FOR MAC OS X#
MacroMates TextMate is another text editor for Mac OS X that looks very nice indeed and I know many Drupal developers that swear by it.
#TEXTWRANGLER SFTP CODE#
Nice autocompletion of code as well as text. Automatically remove all trailing spaces when saving. Easily shift or (un)comment whole sections of code. You can customize the menus and shortcuts. The subtle vertical lines that mark intention levels and how the line the cursor is on gets a light yellow highlight. Apart from the big features I already mentioned it’s the many small things that makes BBEdit a joy to use. I’m now using BBEdit 9 and I depend on it heavily in my daily work. This together with its “Search and Replace” that has excellent, not to say superb, support for regular expressions, nice command line integration, ability to automatically save every version of a file to a backup folder and the best diff function I have ever used makes it more then worth its price. I had moved from static HTML webb-sites to CMS systems so PHP was more interesting to me.īBEdit in later versions added some really compelling features like support for cvs and svn. The main feature of BBEdit seemed to be very nice support for HTML editing, something I had little need for. TextWrangler was my main editor for several years, it was so good that I saw little reason to pay for its big brother BBEdit.
In 2003 TextWrangler replaced BBEdit Lite as the free alternative from Bare Bones. Mainly to use it’s “Search and Replace” that had excellent support for regular expressions. More then 10 years ago I started to use Bare Bones free BBEdit Lite. This is a bit surprising since it’s where I do almost all my writing, and all my coding of course. I noticed that I have never on my blog mentioned the text editor I use.
