- dman 14y agoSince I havent implemented anything I cant make any claims, what I can answer is things that I miss in the current landscape: a) Fast startup times b) Effective utilization of multiple monitors out of the box c) Embedded prompt for dynamic languages d) Minimal lag in the UI e) Fast regex search over multiple files f) Multi file mode - I want to be able to have multiple files mapped to the same buffer and have the ability to quicky seek to files g) Outline mode that is code aware h) Integrated lint mode i) < 10 meg download size All of the above in the same editor. Currently sublime comes the closest, I have also happily used emacs in the past but sublime feels snappier than emacs currently. I guess if emacs could be as snappy and pretty as sublime what it would scratch all my needs, because modulo some polish it has most of the other features.
