Editor.

It is the Sublime Text Editor

Hi Marc, thanks for sharing - what a nice editor! I'll really will
give it a try. Today I use TextMate but Sublime have interesting
features, for example the Code Overview, Split Window Mode, ...

Yea, Sublime Text is really nice, be sure to get the Beta version though, it's much more improved!

What would be an advantage over notepad++ ... I have converted from Dreamweaver since it is not cost effective anymore, but love notepad++.

Hi,

I use Sublime beta on Linux as my daily editor for html/CSS and ruby coding, and I love it.

These are the strong points I appreciate :

- the emacs-like fuzzy search (eg : type "admuseshow" and it finds : /views/admin/users/show.html.erb, and it's blazing fast. You can also directly preview the files it finds, and that is a time saver.
- the search/replace in file / in folders utilities : very flexible, and again very fast
- tabs and recent files management : you have direct access
- overall responsiveness
- compatibilty with a lot of textmate addons
- nice minimalist dark tones design : plenty of room for code display

The only weak point I've noticed is when you move files : it's not very good at it in the sidebar, so I do it in my file manager. Sometimes, it has a bit of a refresh problem when I do that, but hey, it's still in beta, so I hope, it will be fixed soon. I plan to buy it when it's released.

Adrien

Hi,

I hate this to be my first posting to the group -- which I've found to be very useful so far as I'm moving my organisation's mark-up scheme towards one based on OOCSS.

But ... is this really the right forum to be discussing tools? I'm sure there's a valid discussion to be had, but just not necessarily on this list.

Anyway, that's all and I hope to have something more positive to contribute shortly.

Best wishes,
David

I  think it's a bitt off track, but it's hardly gotten out of control or anything.  I'm actually glad the thread was started, because I've needed a replacement for the antiquated Textjmate.  

I believe this is one of those cases where it's good enough news regarding our work ie.. front end (although not directly OOCSS) that it can slide imo

This is great news, I've been desperate for a Textmate replacement. Thanks for sharing.

I find posts like this really positive and add extra value to the group.

I always liked its mini map (they were the first, right?), but other
than that it's a bit weak compared to other choices.

I prefer Komodo (Win/Mac/Linux). It supports FTP, SFTP, FTPS, and SCP.
There is on-the-fly syntax checking, call-tips, and context sensitive
auto complete. You can also extend it via macros/plugins written in
Python or JavaScript.

7.x will support Sass and LESS. There will be also some kind of
pluggable syntax checking, which could be for example be used to run
CSS Lint or other tools.

I do prefer somewhat heavier tools for this. If I'm using it for
several hours in a row, I don't mind if starting takes a few seconds
longer.

Sublime does look like a great default text editor though. I.e.
something for quick edits, changing some config file, readmes, and
things like that.
