The story behind the BBEdit universal binary

When you think text editors on the Mac BBEdit is the first program you should think of (though I use the free TextWrangler which is also produced by Barebones). BBEdit is one of those big ticket applications that the Mac OS would be naked without.

Thus, Barebones went about creating an universal binary so that BBEdit will run on the Intel Macs that are coming sooner, or later (depending on what rumor sites you read). You can read all about the fairly smooth process that they went though. This should put many smaller developers at ease, since BBEdit is such a complicated application.
