I am looking for a free programming editor for my iBook G4.

I was going to to get the lightswitch trial until I looked at the sys requirements (needs Intel CPU).

Can someone please point me to a free editor that will work with a G4 iBook running 10.4.11 and supports html, css, javascript, php and c# syntax highlighting?

Lightswitch also requires Windows... – Jason Aug 7 '12 at 2:24
yes... at the time, I was very near ready to install some linux with wine should all else fail. And very tired. But you are right of course, it requires Windows. – MoD Aug 7 '12 at 8:23

TextWrangler will do. It's a freeware, but you probably need to search for an older version.

Thanks for your help. I'm going to try the linked VIM from the other post first, but if that doesn't work I'll start looking for legacy TextWrangler versions and post a direct link at the end of the topic if I find one. – MoD Aug 7 '12 at 8:30
