 REALbasic (of course).

Of course!

Codewarrior 8.3 for an occasional plugin

Not me.

Plugins:
MonkeyBread plugin 4    (Can't do without it)
Einhugur plugins                (Can't do without it)

No for both. No need yet.

eSellerate plugin/SDK   ( Lets the bling bling shine!)

Yes. Still waiting for the money to begin arriving by the truckload, though. ;)

Classes:
XML engine (I've not used in a while. I need to check out RB XML classes )

Nope. I've done all my XML stuff by hand so far. I will be digging into the new XML stuff, though.

FTPSuite                ( haven't used yet. will do so soon)

Yep. Very nice.

App Bundler     ( not used yet but plan to)

Not yet.

Applications:
ResFool                         (essential for AE dictionary creation and 
resource editing)

I try to stay away from resources these days, and I haven't done anything with Apple Events yet.

BBEdit Lite 6.2.2       (text editing )

I switched to SubEthaEdit, because of its excellent syntax coloring for HTML, XHTML, SQL, PHP, and XML. Plus the whole group editing via Rendezvous thing is way cool.

FileStorm Pro           ( creating Installer Disk Images )

I just distribute regular homemade disk images for OS X.

RegEx Ex App (from the RB Examples. Helps me debug my ReEx before coding)
Photoshop Elements      (Graphics creation and icon building)
Fireworks MX            ( icon / graphics creation )

Nope. I use Photoshop and ImageReady, with some Illustrator.

IconBuilderPro  (icon  compilation- a Photohshop Plugin)
Icon Paste ( from REAL Software, though I don't use anymore. IconBuilder has my attention now)

Nope. I do use something called IcoMaker or something like that to make .ico files for Windows builds.

Ascii Viewer            ( Homebrew app- converts keystrokes to ascii)
Hex Viewer              ( Homebrew app- converts to Hex)
Hex Edit                        ( Hexadecimal File viewer for reverse 
engineering files)
Encoder (Homebrew app- encodes and decodes with various algorithms Base64, Blowfish, etc..)

I have some homebrew stuff like that as well.

Acrobat Pro 6 ( Creating and reading Documentation as well as PDF debugging using Acro plugins)

For my documentation, I write in AppleWorks, and save as PDF. Works great, and AppleWorks is still the best word processor I've ever used (I hate Word).

Applescript             ( Easier than sending AE )
Ghostscript (postscript debugging, I mostly use Acrobat now. Panther will now open postscript files with pstopdf )

Nope.

Stuffit Deluxe (packaging the files for download. I'm still using this as well as Filestorm)

Yes, for OS 9 distribution.

I also use XERD for database design (MWRB by Joshua Hawcroft). For Windows installers, I use Inno Setup.

And for breaks, iTunes, iChat, and GarageBand. :)
