Haxial TextEdit: not just another bare-bones plain text editor for the Mac. This thing is fast – possibly the fastest-launching OS X application I've seen. It uses its own fonts and interface toolkit, which likely contributes to the speed. The fonts and color scheme names are a bit weirdly inspired (a Monaco 10 bold-like font is called “Petit Mal”), but I can deal with it.
