Does Sublime let you print yet? (Hint: this is the part of the program where you tell me "why would you want to print! or don't print!" and I call you all granola-sucking hippie-daisy doofuses who don't understand the real world.)

#12I'm somewhat bummed that Limetext [1] seems to be dead. I like Sublime, but I don't want to rely on nonfree software for my work. I switched to vim for now. [1] http://limetext.org/

Re: Sublime Text 3 dev build 3128 released
#13I'm just hoping that ST3 will be marked as final soon, so that Skinner may collect the upgrade fees before VSC has completed its take over of the world (of free editors). As a long time fan, I do get - and admire - the perfectionism, but hopefully there's room for dot releases after the 3.0 final.
Sublime fans and VSC fans are almost disjoint sets...
Re: Sublime Text 3 dev build 3128 released
#14The creator of Sublime Text tends to go silent for long periods between stretches of activity, which always makes me wonder about the future of the project. It's a shame, since ST is a well-thought-out editor with great attention to detail, and of course the speed argument (compared to Atom and VS Code), while beaten to death, still holds true. Of course, it's up to the author himself to choose how he communicates, m…
I've been very active on the forum, Discord, IRC and the Packages repo on GitHub. I don't think the stereotype of Sublime HQ being radio silent holds true any longer. We don't, however, make blog posts or tweets saying "we're still working on the next build." However, whenever anyone asks on the forum (twitter, etc) I'll be happy to tell you we are still working on the next build! :-)

Yeah, it's the blog posts/tweets stuff that might be needed.
Because most devs don't bother checking the forums (much less irc).
In fact, and this is 100% true, I just spoke to a guy in the next office asked him enthusiastically "did you get the new ST update?", and he looked at me quizzically: apparently he still uses ST2 (which has bought 2 years ago or so) and didn't even know there was a ST3 out at all.
(which motivated me to post this thread on HN)

You'd be surprised. I'm tempted to go to the VSC side from time to time because of the more polish -- it's the speed that brings me back.

Not sure what you're asking. If you mean if this is a major release, then no. It's a new dev build for the ST 3 series.
It is however "major" in features.

Thanks for the reply! I'm sure you're right about the stereotype not holding true, I haven't really been following things closely.
I also understand that time spent convincing people all over the internet that you're still working on the next build may be better spent... well, working on the next build :)! What I had in mind was more along the lines of "what's happening to Sublime Text in the long term", though that may not even be relevant.

Disjoint sets of...everyone that use text editors with IDE-like features?
