  "Given up on TextMate." I've been using the open source TextMate. I have to say, it's one of the best free editors out there.
  • adamstac 14y ago
    That was just 7 months ago though http://thechangelog.com/textmate-2-now-on-github/ http://thechangelog.com/textmate-2-now-on-github/ Folks started to give up on updates to TextMate years ago. I'm certainly glad that it's open now and being pushed forward, but that was only after lying stagnant for too long -- meanwhile Sublime Text propped up and pushed forward.

      And it's cross-platform, too.
      • adamstac 14y ago
        Very good point.

    I tried it for a week, nothing over ST2 as far as I was concerned. What do you like about it?
    • mistercow 14y ago
      But ST2 isn't free.
      • eurleif 14y ago
        Neither is TextMate.
        • mistercow 14y ago
          Yes it is: https://github.com/textmate/textmate/blob/master/LICENSE https://github.com/textmate/textmate/blob/master/LICENSE
          • eurleif 14y ago
            Oops. Thanks.
      • drivebyacct2 14y ago
        It's also not Mac only though. (Yeah, yeah, I'm a heretic.)
        • mistercow 14y ago
          It's not that you're a heretic (I do my work using ST2 on Ubuntu), it's just that stcredzero said TM was "one of the best free editors out there." So comparing it to a non-free editor is irrelevant to that comment. If you said Chrysler was one of the best American car companies, and I said "They've got nothing on Toyota", then that would be a silly thing for me to say.

  fwiw I still enjoy using textmate. Also I guess part of the success of ST2 is due to support of textmate bundles
  • warmwaffles 14y ago
    and the cross platform ability. I constantly flip between Mac, Linux, and windows.
  • jQueryIsAwesome 14y ago
    It's the python plugins and the multiple carets... mostly.
    • sorbits 14y ago
      TextMate has an elegant implementation of multiple carets: http://blog.macromates.com/2011/multiple-carets/ http://blog.macromates.com/2011/multiple-carets/
      • jQueryIsAwesome 14y ago
        nice; VS too (well, not sure if elegant) using an extension: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/SimultaneousEditingForVisualStudioWithTheFreeMultiEditExtension.aspx http://www.hanselman.com/blog/SimultaneousEditingForVisualSt...
• gee_totes 14y ago
  Are there any tools for integration between vim and chrome dev tools?
  • adamstac 14y ago
    Hmm, we'll certainly keep our eyes out for that and cover it.
  • account_taken 14y ago
    I know some are salivating over this but it's still far behind the DevTools built into Chrome. For example, how do you inspect the DOM? How you do you look at generated runtime elements? How do you inspect cascaded styles? Why use two tools when the other is just a proxy to a subset of the functionality built into Chrome's dev tools?
• brenfrow 14y ago
  Dang... what can't you do with Sublime Text? I've been using it for 9 months now and the plugins keep getting better.
