Either it’s overpriced as heck or free but missing some of the criteria. Over the years i’ve tried a bunch of editors, but none has all the functionality and the price i can live with.

A few i’ve tried:

SE|PY (kept crashing…)
XCode
SubEthaEdit
Eclipse (and Flex Builder)
FDT (to pricey for me)
TextMate
Smultron
BBEdit

TextMate is the only one that has felt OK when it comes down to it, compairing functionality to price even though it doesn’t have code-completion. Now i just wish that someone could point me in a direction where you have the simplicity of TextMate with code-completion or port FlashDevelop to OSX.
