Vim? I know this is always a touchy suggestion to make due to scars of
the texteditor wars, but it works for me and has a whole raft of syntax
highlighting features (etc, etc, etc). Are you counting it as vi or had
you not considered it?

Mind you, I don't know if it runs on OS X but I can't see why it
wouldn't (out of interest, does OS X make it as easy as Linux to roll
your own custom binaries from source?).
