Sublime Text 3 Build 3080

Agreed, but the extensibility is very limited.

Just look at the contortions this little package has to go through to apply a color to portions of text: https://github.com/Monnoroch/ColorHighlighter/blob/master/Co...

It has to create and apply a fake theme merged with your current theme so colors can be added "dynamically"[1].

The ancient Emacs (I hate a hate/love relationship with it) can do this is several ways, the "modern" one are overlays IIRC.

[1] As expected, this will lead to bugs related to the users' color schemes: https://github.com/Monnoroch/ColorHighlighter/issues

I get so sick of listening to people be so negative in the comments on this site. Can't you think of anything better to say than that it "sucks"

Fixed. But the criticism towards ST3 shall continue, since Jon doesn't seem to hear the community at all.

(But the strategy works for him, so...)
