- krick 13y agoOh, I didn't know about that one. Now that seems interesting! Thanks for sharing.
- swah 13y agoNice, but I would have to know a little more about their philosophy before deciding I'm interested in the project. Their frontpage shows something as closed as Sublime's. "This is what we're doing with this tech, its gonna be great".
- swdunlop 13y agoThere's source code, a BSD license and the README describes their rationale right up front. In light of just the superficial information on github, your comment seems hyperbolic. My interest in the project is in something with a design similar to Sublime Text that works remotely in an SSH session. There's also some exotica about wrapping Python in a Go process which I find interesting and terrifying.

- swdunlop 13y agoInteresting. I find it a little comic that plist XML files have become the common language for exchanging syntax definitions between editors, due to TextMate. I wrote a utility to convert these files to/from YAML so it would be friendlier to edit Sublime Text themes; editing naked XML plists was painful for me. https://gist.github.com/swdunlop/8872387 https://gist.github.com/swdunlop/8872387
