This is where PathFinder shows its true worth. It has a decent built-in text
editor and pdf viewer among other tools. It is really a Finder replacement
(actually a Finder supplement) but it replaces many more things as well.

Also, Tom Bender's Tex-Edit has a lot of neat utilities built in as well and
has been around for about as long as I can remember. It comes with some
pretty handy scripts as well and just keeps getting better and better.
