Sublime Text 3.1 Released
With the wealth of high quality and extremely portable code editors out there I never understood how one could justify using a proprietary closed source editor. Want to code on NetBSD? Woops. Oh the devs moved on and do not offer support anymore, nor will they publish the source? Well better trash 10 years of scripts and muscle memory and move on to something else then. Or maybe you'd just like to be able to fork it to tweak something?<p>Closed source IDEs I sort of understand because they're generally tied to a certain environment and can offer functionality not easily emulated in open source offerings. For simple code editors I really don't see the point though, especially since the feature list doesn't seem to offer anything significant that's not already available (sometimes for decades) in open source alternatives. What am I missing?
