large-files

Sometimes I need to work on EXTREMELY large text files. 200-300 megs or more.

My favorite text editor on my MacBook Pro is TextMate. However, TM chokes on very large text files. Even ones around the 100MB mark.

Is there a text editor that can handle such files for Snow Leopard?

Thanks!
