TextMate -> Chocolat
[ Parent
| on HN ]
Man, I'd love to use Chocolat. Can't wait for a wider release. (if anyone wants to throw an invite my way, [email protected]).
What's missing from it compared to TextMate?
How is Chocolat?
Actually surprisingly good; one of the main aspect that I think has been really well handled is the tab/pane handling.
Here for the preview; https://skitch.com/hunvreus/f592a/backbone.js
Pretty clean UI elements, nice highlighting; so far I like it.
I'm also playing with mvim with the file drawer; https://github.com/alloy/macvim.git, neat too.
I wish MacVim with the drawer worked, but -- for me, at least -- it leaks memory like a sieve...
Using an editor that sucks 2Gb of RAM opening a simple C file is just... weird.
It's the most TextMate-like, beautiful, but still too early as it's missing a lot of features.
I have an extra invite, if you need one.
Email is in my profile as well. If you have any spares, I'd appreciate one. Thanks!
Sorry I gave my last one to cmelbye, but you might hit him up as I think everyone starts out with one invite.
My email is in my profile if you have an extra invite that you could throw my way.
Done.

It's really good, as mentioned, it's missing a lot of features but it's coming along nicely.
