I got this comment that "this plugin set is worth nothing" (because of the first sentence) and didn't agree with that part. I agree that language aware refactoring is always better and precise. The pity is that it is not available for most languages.

Worth noting as in underscoring or paying attention to. Not worth nothing...

Today I learned something new about English language, thank you!

Sadly, there is no plugin that can come close to the "jump to definition" functionality that IntelliJ have.

"Go to definition" is the first choice you get when you right-click a word.

I think you misunderstood GP's comment, I took their comment as noting that for Java and Scala there's a language-aware refactoring framework (Ensime) with Sublime integration which can thus provide language- and semantics-aware refactorings and transformations (thus further and safer ones).

Goodness gracious no, "worth noting" means "probably valuable or useful to think about or remember" (in this case in the sense of talking about an other edition/refactoring engine which might be better/more powerful for a very specific set of languages rather than in the general case).

Not "[the subject] is worth nothing".

In this case "that's a cool tool, though if you're specifically using Scala or Java Sublime-Ensime provides even more features".

How do Sublime users feel about Atom (https://atom.io/) as a replacement?

I switched from Sublime 2 to Atom earlier this year and haven't really looked back. I admit, though, that my customization needs in the environment have been minimal. I've written a couple of editing short-cuts for Elixir source, but that's it.

I'm curious to learn what features in Sublime merit purchasing it over Atom or another free text editor.

Real Vim competitor !

Aren't most people using neovim now?

The main selling point for neovim when I found out about it was the async plugin support. And I remember reading that the creator of neovim mainly did it because the maintainers of vim refused to accept his patch to add async plugin support for vim.

But about a month ago, vim added async plugin support. So now what? I switched to neovim, and now I am undecided if I should switch back to vim or not.

neovim has a fresh start, cleaner code base but less support/timetested code than vim. What do you guys think?

Emacs can be installed on any server (and can be used to edit files on any server, from a client …), and it has smooth fonts and scrolling (if you like that; I turn off the scrollbar). And of course it excels at mouseless editing, navigation & automation. https://github.com/zk-phi/sublimity might be useful to you, too.

Emacs needs to be installed. Vi is already installed most of the time. Especially on embedded devices there is often no real competition to vi.

> Vi is already installed most of the time.

60% of the time, it works every time, eh? :-)

I use vi too, but less now than I used too. It's definitely a powerful little editor.
