To me, switching from years of Windows where I used Notepad++ back to Mac I found Sublime felt a little more familiar to me. ![]() I’ve seen many that recommend and love this app. This seems to be another very popular text editor in the Mac world. This is just a solid go to text editor with great features such as column editing and much more. Whether just writing a config file or script to push to a device, or writing code for web page, or mayber diving into Python for the SDN rush. Sublime is a very popular text editor and syntax highlighter for Mac (I belive it is cross platform as well). As far as iTerm goes, it’s just a slightly more pretty version of the build in terminal to me, but a great alternative to Zoc6 and SecureCRT for low cost. Really good for getting you connect in a flash or a bind. Terminal is built into the Mac operating system and is a quick and easy to run ssh or telnet session. Again, this tool functions very well with all of your serial adapters. Also a hidden gem in the ability to highlight keywords in the output of the terminal. ![]() It supports sending commands to multiple sessions at one time. Logging is simple to set up for every session. There are some features that just make my day that much easier. Also, it functions well with one of my favorite serial adapters, Airconsole SecureCRT It also has no problem with USB to Serial adapters and supports all of the fun tricks like sending a config file to the terminal. Zoc6 is a solid program that naturally handles SSH and Telnet sessions like a champ. It took me a bit to get used to the difference in how profiles and connections are set up moving from SecureCRT for Windows. This isn’t my favorite terminal program but that mostly due to my own dislike of change. I’m still searching for all the app alternatives but I figured I could make this into a working document of my favorite apps in terms of network engineering. This took some digging and searching to find apps similar to what I used on Windows. However, I recently purchased a new Mac to get back to what I personally like best, with that, I had to rebuild my app repetoir for doing my job on a Macbook. In fact, I’ve spent the last 4 years using Windows exclusively for work due to work issued laptops and the lack of support for Mac in the companies I have worked with. I’m surely not going to get into the debate between Windows or Apple as a primary computer. I am not going to play bias in anyway towards any particular apps.
