True my own words haunt me. I complained about atom as it was an editor that was a plain rip off sublime text. Just that it is done in JavaScript. I complained how they could not create something similar to Acme which was a brilliant innovation. I did try to customize Acme to what suited me. But clearly Acme's philosophy is quite different. Rob Pike says a big no to line numbers and highlighting. On why I chose JavaScript: that is the only language you can use on the web browser. I tried several cross platform GUI toolkits that Go supported. They were half complete or abandoned. The web is the only sane cross platform development environment.
