MacVim is quite accessible with VoiceOver. You can also tweak it a little to make things like Python source code editing that that little bit nicer. If you are looking for a fully featured IDE like Eclipse, then vim probably isn't for you, on the other hand if you are wanting an editor for some

Hi, I have pulled apart an Intel mini, and I assume the G4 is similar. Getting the case open is the most interesting part, the first time you do it it feels entirely wrong and you'll probably think you are breaking the thing. The next time you do it, it will only take you seconds because you'l

Eclipse is a reasonably good option, especially with a fully Cocoa port in the works for version 3.5. I've been playing with the nightly builds and they are working extremely well. Eclipse is primarily a Java editor, however plugins exist for Python, Ruby, Groovy, C, PHP, HTML, JavaScript etc
