We're supposed to use our 'OneNASA' e-mail address, so you'd have to change
it to

	[log in to unmask]

... and I said that in part as I've been in the past a beta tester for 
BareBones's BBEdit.  If you're not doing HTML work, TextWrangler will
probably do what you need (which is ... whatever the 'free' is that
isn't 'libre')

And there's plenty of other good software out there that isn't free,
and there's lots of free software out there that's crap (some of which
I might've been involved with).
