I don't make 60 bucks an hour (not even 45 euros).. Much sad :(
You may be confusing your salary with what your boss charges clients. Or, it may simply be that you are from somewhere where the economy is different.
While my boss charges something like EUR100 an hour, I make less than 25% of that (after taxes).
O.t.o.h.: The salary is quite competitive around here (41k EUR a year, 40hrs/wk, 25 days off)

I completely agree with what you say. Sublime is awesome and I don't mind paying money for closed-source software. What I do mind is, that the development seems to have stopped, and being closed-source nobody can move it forward but the original maintainer. It once again brings attention to the most important "bus factor" [0] [0] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_factor
I'm pretty curious about what new features you are looking for in Sublime. I spend more time in Sublime Text than pretty much any other application. I understand the idea that "development may have stopped", but there are not any glaring bugs, sublime text 3 is super fast, and there is a huge community building sublime plugins. The editor was built in such a way where it allows the entire community to keep moving it…

In between major releases they have tons and tons of bug fixes (Vim probably has hundreds per release).
Editors can suffer a lot from code rot since they have to integrate with a lot of things. An Open Source version could be quite interesting from Sublime's community point of view. I don't know about the developer's income while this happens, though.

Yes, I use that, but I'd also love to buy just for the sake of it. But 60 is a lot. I guess he just targets developer who are constantly using an editor instead, increasing the price and making that bet. The pop up message must be quite unnerving for heavy users.
$60 for a tool that you'd probably use every day? Well worth it in my opinion.

Ok that's interesting. The following features are also crucial to me: * Tree view * Split window with synchronized views when showing the same file * Regex search over file or selection, results can be turned into multicursors (!) * Regex search over multiple files or directories * Multicursors at each line for a selection * Auto-update of views when file underneath changes (editor should ask what to do in case of ed…
Interesting, I guess it is just an editing preference. Multiple cursors i associate with mouse use (I know it isn't the same but I bet most people use the mouse with them). I consider touching the mouse dangerous for myself and for productivity. > Tree View This i fully understand (and exisits in emacs) but I think not necessary either for my workflow. A treeview does already exist in a format called folders and file…

The funny thing being that the impetus for a lot of people moving to Sublime in the first place was that happening to TextMate 1.
I'm pretty happy with TextMate 2 at this point - pretty regular updates, mature eco system, continuous improvement and its open source.

Also, I think it's weird that the fact that it's made in Go is part of the pitch. I mean, unless I'm contributing... I don't care. You could write it in brainfuck if it does the job.
