MacOS – Which text editors support both tabbed windows & rtf documents

macosnotes.apptabstext;word-processor

I am looking to change my text editor / note taking app for OS X. I require only the following:

  • Tabbed windows: I don't want every document open in a new window. For some reason this seems to be an elusive feature, missing from even many high end word processors
  • Able to handle rtf documents
  • Does not require an account (many note taking apps do)

Pretty short list eh? I'm coming up with almost nothing. 'Bean' (http://www.bean-osx.com/Bean.html) is so far the only one I've found but it's no longer under development and search/replace feature doesn't work properly.

I know this question could be interpreted as open ended or opinion based, but it is not. I am asking to find out which apps conform to the above requirements, not for opinions about which is best.

I've been using FocusWriter to good effect. It supports RTF, has files in independent tabs, and doesn't require a login.
