Suggestions for external text editor with OSX?

I'm working on a project to uses a large amount of text. I've tried using Pages and TextEdit to create text and paste it into a GUI.Label but both have fallen short by losing some of the formatting or characters. TextEdit appears better but it seems to strip apostrophes and quotation marks.

Any suggestions for a better option/workflow?

 

Unitron.

Unitron +1

 

For C# MonoDevelop or VisualStudio if you have a virtual machine up anyway

 

I have tried using Unitron but I must be missing something. When I cut and paste text into it, everything looks good but when I then cut and paste the text into Unity, it is missing apostrophes and quotation marks. If I Open the file with Unitron it replaces the apostrophes and quotation marks with this letter.

I just want to clarify that I'm talking about actual text here, not code. This is in game text that will be displayed using GUI.Label.

 

Code is text. Make sure you're using UTF-8 for the text encoding.

True. Code is text. And I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that

Unfortunately this still doesn't work but I have managed a relatively painless work around. If I select the offending characters, copy and paste them into 'find and replace' and then input the desire character, I am able to copy the modified text into Unity with apostrophes and quotation marks. It seems strange that there are 2 apostrophes. I kind of understand multiple quotation marks as they can be open or closed.

Thanks for the help.

 

TextMate. I swear by it and have always gone back to it even from IDEs.

 

I second that. TextMate is the one editor to rule them all on mac.
