Still no mention of chunked Undos. Undo'ing character by character is why I gave up on TextMate years ago, but I suppose I should be thankful since it helped me find Vim.
- hornbaker 15y agoCorrection: I found chunked undos listed on a separate feature list: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/891742/Screenshots/tm2_release_notes.html http://dl.dropbox.com/u/891742/Screenshots/tm2_release_notes...
- cmwright 15y agoIt has definitely improved from char-by-char undo. It's at least doing word by word and seems to grab bigger chunks in some instances
- bad_user 15y agoConsidering how in Emacs an Undo can also be undone and that you can apply Undo only on a selected region, text editors that are undoing char-by-char leave a bad impression on me.
- thingsinjars 15y agoCharacter-by-character undo is actually the reason I first started using Textmate. Most of the time, I don't want the editor to guess what I want to undo, I want it to undo each individual keystroke and action I made.
- dextorious 15y agoSeriously? That's why there are different kinds of Undo for different key combinations in serious text editors.
- thingsinjars 15y agoYes, seriously. It's a personal preference. Is the second part of your comment intended to imply TextMate isn't a serious text editor?
- dextorious 15y agoYes, that's my general viewpoint. TM is just something "good enough" for people not wanting to go full on to either Vim/Emacs or an IDE. People one would call "newbies" back in the day.
- thingsinjars 15y agoThat sounds awfully like something someone would say if they were trolling. I'm going to assume you weren't. There are many things I've found I like in TextMate that Vim can't do - character-by-character undo, for example.
