As one of the few geeks using the BlackBerry, I thought it would be useful to view and edit code on the move. So I give you TextWarrior, a text editor that is free in cost and source!
You can download it from Mobihand or Handango. mobihand.com/product.asp?id=84507&n=TextWarrior
This is just a preliminary alpha release, and is meant to gather feedback, suggestions and bug reports. That will decide what features I will implement next.
Currently, only syntax highlighting for C, C++ and Java is supported. Depending on demand, I might add support for other languages like HTML and Python. More info in the readme file in the download.
Oh, and for non-geeks, you can use it to edit regular text files on your memory card and device, with a nifty search panel as well.

I've got to work with it a bit and I have to say I like it. I couldn't see doing a lot of development through it, mainly due to the small screen size of my Tour. I think if I had a Storm2, it would work a lot better for me.
But, for having a simple way to edit and view source code (including syntax highlights), it can definitely come in handy when away from the computer. So far, it displays everything very well.
