It's amazing the consistency of quality of experience between Mac and Windows. The cross-platform license is also fantastic. There will be those days where you, for some reason, arrive on a Windows box and having Sublime Text around will make your day substantially less painful.

Add Linux to that, I couldn't be happier with it's quality.

This. Most of the time I am on linux but occasionally on windows and its great to have the editor on both

It'll take a lot to convince me to switch to a new text editor (coming from a perfectly-customized MacVim experience). Sublime Text 2 is the first that has even caught my attention, and each new build has given me more to love about it. That said, it's going to take real vim bindings for me to actually switch.

I am thinking exactly the same. I am primarily a vim user and even though Sublime Text 2 looks good, I am not sure how it compares. I might go and look for some feature comparisons.

Hadn't seen this before, looks pretty neat. The mini-map is a nice idea; just wish I didn't have to give up Vim to use it. ...figures, someone's already on the case.

Some discussion about a mini-map plugin for Vim came up when Sublime 1 came out. From what I can remember, it was either impossible or very hard to do in Vim, but there was an Emacs implementation done.

in the current form its impossible in vim. perhaps vico can implement something but im not looking to jump on that ship.

Do you open lots of buffers on a single vim session, or just start a vim from the terminal for the file you want to edit?
