Question

I'm looking for an alternative to notepad++ that runs on MAC OS. The thing is, I need a texteditor that looks as similar as possible to notepad++. A little background: I'll be holding HTML and CSS tutorials and while I'll be using my windows laptop with a projector, the attendees will be working on Macs. So I want to be able to show them e.g. the basic HTML syntax and for them to be able to write that by themselves without being confused by a completely different looking editor.

The first thing I found is Textwrangler, is this a good choice in this case? (I don't have a Mac here so I can't try it out myself) Or which other (free!) Texteditor that resembles notepad++ could you recommend?

Explanation / Answer

All text-editors on Mac (I know of) look different than Notepad++. Totally different names of options, set of options, options dialogs different, menu layout is different. I know that Sublime Text is most ok, which is not free, and again, event it looks totally different.
