Light weapon and double-pistol, working towards this. Eventually trade the EWF for a revolver or pepperbox.
Sword and Pistol.
What??
That is not what he asking for at all.

I was going to suggest a Aldori Dueling Sword, as it can be used as a Martial Weapon (in which case it functions as a longsword).
You can use the Weapon Finesse feat to apply your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier on attack rolls with an aldori dueling sword sized for you, even though it isn't a light weapon. You can also wield an aldori dueling sword in two hands in order to apply 1-1/2 times your Strength bonus to damage.
So, when you can only make one attack, you can two hand it for damage, but still take advantage of you dexterity.
Later, you can enchant it with the Agile enchantment, for Dex to damage.
How do you feel about spiked shields and shield bashing?
I tend to do TWF with the same weapon in each hand, because then your weapon training, weapon focus, and weapon specialization apply to all your attacks, along with any improved critical based feats.
If you're going to do any Enlarge Person or Lead Blades-type buffs, your best bet is Sawtooth Sabre: it functions as a long sword in all respects, but it can be used in an off hand without penalty. It takes an EWP feat, but you can swing 1d8 in each hand, and then enlarge person or use lead blades to kick it up to 2d6.
I have a two-weapon fighter who uses dual wakizashis, with improved critical, weapon focus/specialization, and weapon training with gloves of dueling. At 10th level, she threw out 4 attacks a round at +20/+20/+15/+15, for 1d6+10 each, critting on a 15 or better, without any temporary buffs up. I went for the wakizashis because they were the highest damage light weapon that did both piercing and slashing with an 18-20 crit threat.
My husband and I picked up the teamwork feat Outflank, so every time my fighter scored a critical hit, his barbarian got a free AoO against the target. It was really, really brutal. If you don't have a regular melee partner, you can accomplish the same effect with a Ring of Tactical Precision.
If you're really limited to using the Two-Weapon Warrior archetype and at least one Longsword, you're looking at a pretty default set of standard feats; fortunately the Two-Weapon Warrior eventually gets to drop the penalties for using two longswords, so you can just use a feat-less shortsword in the offhand until you feel like changing to two longswords is worth the penalty or the penalty is gone.
Personally, if I was limited by class and fighting style like that and looking at spare feats to use, I'd have fun getting creative with racial and oddball stuff.
For example, with your epic point buy you could go for a charisma score high enough to grab the Eldritch Heritage feats for the Fey bloodline; you now have a Fighter who can do a touch-attack no-save shutdown and use Greater Invisibility a few rounds a day.
Or, you could go Aasimar and spend the feats to get a set of wings that give you a permanent fly speed and two secondary wing attacks.
Most of this stuff never quite makes the cut when people are focusing all their resources on a main goal, but if you're limited to pure fighter anyhow... why not go nuts with the fringe goodies?
