I like the atom effort, and I think it may come a long way. But it also still has a long way to go until it is as mature as emacs.
Another good thing of emacs that I only recently started to appreciate is LISP --the grandpapa of all dynamic languages-- that is used for both emacs scripting and config-file format (they are kind of the same). JavaScript, how ubiquitous it may be, will never be as "impartial" and "timeless" as LISP.
- roryokane 12y agoThe good thing about JavaScript, however, is that it has become a compile target for many languages. You could theoretically write an Atom plugin in any language that compiles to JavaScript, even a Lisp-based one like ClojureScript.
