I'm confused, doesn't it already have auto-complete? Mine's been doing that for a while now. What's new about this?

#12What I really miss in all these fast small editors is the quick-jump features that actually analyze the code and let me do things like 1) Jump the the function/method definition (even if it's in a different file) when I press Ctrl and click on the function name. Eclipse does this. 2) Quick find of the function/method definition across the whole project. Eclipse does this as well (Ctrl + R). I don't use Eclipse that m…
You can get this sort of navigation with ctags ( http://ctags.sourceforge.net/ ) and a plugin like this one: https://github.com/SublimeText/CTags
I also use cscope: https://github.com/ameyp/CscopeSublime

> Jump the the function/method definition
for scripting languages, define a function as concatenated string in eval(), how could you find the function definition, without actually run the script for once?
Even if you run the script once, what if there is a delete_file() function you accidently called?
So do we need to implement a sandboxed VM in order to find definition, theoretical perfectly speaking?

#14I really wish Emacs had smooth scrolling, indent guides and that Minimap. Those are some killer features that you can't just implement in Emacs' scripting language. edit: minimap exists! (Obviously only in GUI Emacs) Animated sub-line scrolling probably requires hacking the Emacs source. Indent guides might be possible just in elisp, but I don't know how good they would look.
> you can't just implement in Emacs' scripting language.
you can't implement minimap in CLI. It's a GUI concept.

You can do this in emacs with etags and etags-select.el. ctags works with vim.

#16Was hoping for some sidebar love in the new theme (file and folder icons, renaming files in place), but the changes seem good so far.

#17My favorite feature (already added in an earlier development release, but now finally in the beta track): On OSX, if you are editing a file you don't have write access to and you want to save it, Sublime now asks for authentication than then saves the file.
This is very convenient and not having this was the reason for still having TextMate around.

"ridiculously slow"? Well, it is slower than a small text editor, but after using Visual Studio for about a year, Eclipse seems blazingly fast to me.

Re: Sublime Text 2 Beta released with Auto-complete and Improved UI
#20For those wondering, auto-complete is quite fast. I've always avoided IDEs that offered this because they seemed to be terribly slow -- pleasantly surprised so far.
does it support any kind of CTags?
