TextEdit, Bean, Smultron, Textwrangler, etc., are better and they are free, so what for?

- It works with any kind of plain text files (text, source code, HTML, ...).
^^^ Ahh, cool! Smultron, TextWrangler, etc. does that ... for free!
- You can open recently opened files.
^^^ Really? ROFL!
- You can scroll forward and backward through all opened windows.
^^^ C'mon! ROFL!
- You can reload files from disk at any time.
^^^ Is that a unique feature with a text editor?!
- It has an unlimited number of undo.
^^^ No kidding!
- You can select the default font and default font size of the editor.
^^^ Erm, LOL! Smultron, etc. ... see above.
- You can select the default foreground color and default background color of the editor.
^^^ Great! I expected something like this for my money. Smultron, etc. ... see above.
- You can print your documents.
^^^ This is simply priceless!

I will stay with "insert the name of your favorite free text editor here".

There's a shareware fee of $20 for this which is ridiculous.
I would definitely choose the simple yet elegant, and FREE, "Smultron" over Plain Text Editor.

Why would you create a simple text editor with a few skimpy little features and make it shareware? PEOPLE: Just use TextEdit from Apple. This program is a waste of money, HD Space, and time. TextEdit can do better than this and it is FREE. And please MAKE YOUR OWN ICON! You are stealing another's. You could at least modify it a little.
Why make this Shareware??????
