Emacs has pull down menus, cut and paste, CUA bindings, displays graphics, plays sounds... WTF do you mean by "terminal-style buffers/frames?"

- danabramov 13y agoI don't mean to sound hipster or anything but I prefer software with native look-n-feel on the platform I'm using. I tried Emacs on OS X (proglang on Coursera asks students to use it for editing SML), gave it a couple of hours and switched back to Sublime. I understand I missed all its glory and power but at least Sublime scrolls like OS X apps scroll, has shortcuts like OS X apps and looks like a OS X app. But then again, I understand why you might think this is a fool's position. I'm okay with that.
- mempko 13y agoyou ain't going to get native look and feel from atom.
- danabramov 13y agoScrolling in WebKit is native, scrolling in Emacs isn't.
