Ms. Kindred Spirit - It’s “in regard” not “in regards”.

Wotcha Steve,

I am really unconvinced of these and more to the point, they don't have sizes that fit normal human beings. A foot should be one foot long and they just don't hack it.

Actually as i call it “dynamic looping” can be implemented practically in any programming language which supports recursion. Something in the form:

LoopManyTimes(LoopLevel, BottomLevel, … ) { If LoopLevel == BottomLevel // Do this and that Else // Call additional loop LoopManyTimes(LoopLevel+1, BottomLevel, …) }

Recursion is still powerful tool Of course this doesn`t deny the fact that LISP macros is probably most powerful macro system in the world of programming languages. Good work,- keep it up !!

My friend just yelled at me about saying something was “more unique” so I googled “grammar +more unique” and your article was the second hit.

I just thought I’d let you know that you’re my kindred spirit in regards to grammar and ranting.

Thanks.

Fabulous service. I’ve finally got one of many games graduated from imagination to reality.

I'm intrigued - I have 'e' at work, as I use TextMate at home, and there's obviously an advantage in learning one set of behaviours / short-cuts.

From the screenshots, this looks far nicer (less of a clone, but more something inspired by the same principles) but for me there's a concern about different behaviour/short-cuts (the cognitive difference between things that look nearly the same, but are not).

As for whether $60 is pricey - I recall people balking at the price of TextMate too. But surely the key question is how many hours of productivity does that represent??

As for Jon M - the question that needs to be asked is why hasn't the open source community produced an editor like this, or TextMate - consider that these commercial editors have emerged AFTER the existence of vim and emacs.

(I think part of the answer is that both TextMate and Sublime are the products of single developers, with a specific vision, while the nature of open source is that it suffers the same thing as Microsoft's software - design by committee).
