From the site, it looks like it has regex search/replace and multiple/vertical selection. It also looks like it can automate tasks (with macros, perhaps?).
I use vim, but I've been thinking lately that all you really need to efficiently edit text are the above things listed. Vim and Emacs are extremely powerful, but your first experience with them was probably awful, and the learning curves are steep. Is a powerful AND intuitive text editor possible?
- latortuga 17y agoI figure you know this already as a user of vim but I thought it might be worth pointing out that vim has all of those features.
- Afton 17y agoI think jcw's point was that while vim has these features, no additional features are really required. I interprete the exchange this way: question "how does it stack up". answer: "meets minimum bar".
