   I am an experienced TextMate user, and when I went back to using Emacs after a hiatus with TextMate, one of the first things I did was import everything I liked about TextMate into Emacs. The functionality you mention exists for Emacs.

   You haven't really absorbed why Emacs does things the way it does. Spend more time tinkering with Emacs Lisp and you'll see what I mean.

   I'm a coder, not a lawyer. If you have a specific concern you should discuss it with an IP lawyer.

   Are you kidding me? My commute is shorter in Cali than it was in NYC.

   You are protected from this completely in the state of California. One of the many reasons this state is so great.

    We (emacs) already have like 5-6 ack modes, I beg of you, don't add to the list. Just find which one you like best and offer improvements.

    I don't really care why people believe in their many gods. From one god to the next, the premise is still invalid for the same reasons. I don't take them any more seriously than I would a person suffering from a schizophrenic episode. It's

    Already exists in the form of ack mode, which is better integrated with the editor. https://github.com/defunkt/emacs/blob/master/vendor/ack.el http://nschum.de/src/emacs/full-ack/ There are others, but this should suit anybody's needs.

    Actually the details are irrelevant. The entire premise can be disregarded out of hand. That anybody bothers to address specifics such as this post, or matters of dogma/biblical interpretation is more to make it relatable than relevant. Bec

    I use pymacs/ropemacs, but for generalized search I use ack-mode. If I know what I'm looking at, go-to definition is perfectly fast even in huge projects. (My day-to-day project is quite large.) I know the generalized search sucks/is slow

    No you are right. The modems fanaticism is mostly nonsense. Erlang is better for that approach to concurrency in general, amongst other things.

    I don't want to work at that kind of company either. I agreed with you, remember? The point is that there is excessive armchair quarterbacking here from people who haven't actually headed companies. You could've just said, "I wouldn't work

    Yeah, not the OP though. Which is the point I was obliquely getting at. Conversations are not algorithms, you don't be default consider the most general or pathological case. I'm not saying this to PG.

    Sony's incoherence just as a matter of how much surface area they have exposed to the public only multiplies this problem.

    vim is actually more popular than Emacs (FOR NOW), so I don't really know where he's coming from on this one.
