Recently, a lot of people switching to Mac OS X—either from other platforms or earlier Mac operating systems—have been asking me about software for OS X. While most of the commercial stuff is pretty obvious, the OS X community overflows with freeware and shareware head and shoulders above such offerings on other platforms. I put together a list of my favorites.
Dude, you omitted my favorite program for Mac OS X: Emacs compiled as a native app.
You can check it out from CVS sources and compile it yourself, or just download
the installer from my website:

This includes my fix for a TeX-mode bug that I found (my patch was accepted by
the FSF and should now be in the CVS sources).
