e-texteditor.com domain expired, much like the text editor
- jklp 15y agoI always thought this Windows text editor (which use to be one of my favourites) was very much akin to TextMate on the Mac, which started out strong with a great feature set, gained a cult following, and then languished over the years with a lack of updates and community support by the author. It's not surprising though to find Sublime Text taking the spotlight from both e-texteditor and TextMate, with a developer who is happy to engage with the community, and consistently releasing updates. I do hope though, this doesn't mean the end of e-texteditor, as much as I hate having inactive projects, I hate even more having a product with no competitors at all.
- dguaraglia 15y agoAw, that's a shame. I was one of the people that paid for the beta version, while Alexander was still actively engaging the growing community behind the editor. I remember when I first moved back to Linux the only thing I really missed about my Windows setup was E. Luckily that move to Linux forced me to re-learn Vim, finally making it over 'the bump' and making it my main editor, so I watched the slow, painful death of E as just a curious spectator. Still, a shame. It was a great editor.
- mwgriffith 15y agoThe domain seems to be back up now. I still use e quite a bit, but your right they haven't updated nearly enough.
