Sublime text is basically textmate with cross platform support. If you've never used textmate, you'll probably not get why it's so neat.
There are things that I can do faster in vim (like finding files with Command-T), but overall I find it's the right mix of vim and textmate.
I still find the package and snippet system overly complicated, and they still haven't gotten everything right from textmate; but overall a good text editor.
- johncoltrane 13y agoI'm absolutely certain I'd have never switched to Vim if ST2 had been available when I was looking for a cross-platform TextMate replacement. TextMate -> ST2 would have been a very easy and quick transition. "Unfortunately", I was already in love with Vim when the first public alpha of ST2 was released and I was seriously underwhelmed when I tried it. Or spoiled, maybe. Anyway, I wouldn't suggest any new programmer to learn Vim and his craft at the same time: Sublime Text is a very fine editor and it's a lot easier to apprehend.
