I use
TextMate for text editing in OS X and love its clean interface and features, but the defaults do not allow Japanese input and choosing Fonts has been problematic. Never fear.
Hetima san, the developer of
SafariStand, released a bundle called
CJKInput for
TextMate to allow Japanese input, and has a font to boot. I searched a few times for this in English and Japanese, but for some reason never came across it despite its having been around for quite some time.
At any rate, you can download
CJKInput, and unzip and copy the tmbundle file into:
~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/PlugIns/
Hetima's Font-Forged, Mono-Space Japanese font
ForMateKonaVe.ttf is
here, so you can install that in the normal way. Enable it in TextMate Preferences, and away you go. The font is an amalgam of a Japanese font and Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, so it looks good too.

I LOVE YOU! Thanks for the info!!!
I was one click away from buying Coda, which handles Japanese really well, but I just can't give up all my keyboard short cuts and column selection tools I enjoy in textmate.
