MacOS – Which text editors take advantage of Lion’s Versions feature

autosavemacossoftware-recommendationtext-editorversions

I've been a fervent user of Textmate for many a year, and I hope to continue to be one. However, the versions feature of OSX seems like a great and easy to use idea.

I'm mostly doing HTML, CSS and PHP, and I am a solo developer. Admittedly, I probably haven't spent enough time trying to work it in, but I've never managed to fit SVN or git into my workflow. However, I recognise their potential usefulness.

So, are there any lightweight text editors suitable for web designers/developers that work with Versions?

Useful features would include:

  • Syntax highlighting
  • A project view/sidebar
  • Auto-indent

TexShop, the Latex editor, now supports Lion versions. It is not a general Text Editor but can be used as such and supports many of the features you requested.
