Yes, that what's I was describing. It works just fine. When I tab back to Sublime, I get the " has changed on disk. Do you want to reload it?" modal dialog box. (If there are no unsaved changes in the Sublime buffer that could be clobbered, it just reloads the file silently as you'd expect.)

It didn't work when I tried a few weeks ago. I am running on Linux.

It'll automatically reload if you don't have any unsaved changes, if you have, it will ask you to reload

I'm a Sublime Text 2 owner, but the continued lack of a Linux/ARM build nor any announced plans for the same mean I won't be upgrading. It is a shame because I like the editor a lot, but if it doesn't work on all the platforms I use it ultimately has zero value to me.

Damn! There goes the whole of the Linux/ARM community!

The replace all performance increase is a great addition, sublime was just painfully slow at managing large simple replacements for when you didn't want to go out of the editor to use sed.

The other advantage is having the same text editor on Windows, OS X and Linux. No more wishing you had TextMate in Windows, or Notepad++ in OS X.

Umm.. vim works fine on all platforms.

Have you ever actually tried it on Windows? I use vim a lot on Linux but working with it on Windows is a nightmare.

I tried using Sublime text and it's a great editor, extensible and moldable, but I just keep coming back to emacs since that is always available wherever I am, logged in via ssh.

A ssh/text-only version of sublime text would be interesting ;)

"API: Upgraded from Python 2.6 to Python 3.3" Oh god, I've got some plugin fixing to do..

Case in point, right off the bat.. Package Control's print statements are going to have to go and urllib2 was deprecated. :)

I started work prepping for Python 3 a little while ago at https://github.com/wbond/sublime_package_control/tree/split_..., however the actual Python 3 changes are in progress and have yet to be committed.

> The price for a Sublime Text license key has increased by $11 to $70, the first price rise in Sublime Text’s five year history That's a pretty big jump. Not saying it's not worth it.

You're making a reading comprehension error (it was an incrase of $11 from $59 to $70).

Although it's a silly error, I made the same one, and I know that I bought ST for $59. So I think the problem here is with the wording, not with us.

Is it just me or Package Control doesn't work on it?

Not yet. I started prepping for the port to Python 3 a bit ago at https://github.com/wbond/sublime_package_control/tree/split_..., but the actual Python 3 changes are still in progress and not pushed (for the sake of not spoiling Jon's surprise).

Wow that's a helpful response :/

ARM devices are happening.. without having seen your codebase I can't speak for how hard it'd be to build for a new target, but given that you're targeting win32 and posixy systems already it seems achievable.

Wouldn't you much rather be the badass that works everywhere than snrk at a growing niche?
