big fan of e text editor. I have been desperately trying to compile the new source code releases for ubuntu but not too successful. (Not to familiar with linux programming/building).
It works on wine though.
- safetytrick 16y agoDoes it work seamlessly through wine? I've been missing textmate snippets lately but it's frustrating to work around little problems?
- amk 16y agoI didn't use it for a long time. It works, but it still needs cygwin to be install for some snippets. That's a little ironic. installing cygwin on wine.. but I guess that's the only way to get a text-mate like editor on linux. Or you could try something called Red Car Editor (http://redcareditor.com http://redcareditor.com) which proclaims to be an editor specially made for ruby/rails programmers. It looks pretty impressive, but again I couldn't get it installed properly. (I think the latest version runs on jRuby platform) EDIT: I got inspired to try Red Car again after posting this comment. Uninstalled Ruby completely from Windows 7, installed jRUby 1.5. Red car gem installation went perfectly, but the editor is shockingly slow and unresponsive. I don't know if the same applies to linux platform, or if there is something wrong with my system (its a 2 year old laptop, and its been a long while since I have reinstalled the Windows OS)
