I like using it as a text editor but have had trouble getting it set up for Scala development. Other than getting syntax highlighting I have had trouble integrating it with an outside compiler and getting a few niceties like auto complete and highlighting errors on compile.
I'm curious, what language do you code in using Sublime and what is your set up?

#13I didn't know (until now) Sublime Text. I don't want to seem inquisitive, but it looks a lot like VIM. I thought it was VIM, or a human-friendly version of it. I took a look to http://www.sublimetext.com/features and many of the features listed are available on a vanilla VIM. Many, if not all, except "Asynchronous file loading, so you're never blocked when loading files off slow network drives", "WinSCP integration f…
VIM supports editing remote files via scp and ftp. Just use {scp,ftp,http}://$host/$path to open a remote file though http support is read-only afaik.

I've also tried to adopt it last month but I found it very unproductive without file and folder manipulation.

What do you mean? You can rename files/folders with sublime text 2.
I myself started seriously using it a month back for some PHP dev (in before the hate) and I'm loving it. This editor is amazing.

Yep, you are right, but imho the fastest way to have read-write support is to use sshfs. Anyway thank you for pointing it out.

#17Why is this news worth getting published for every update?
If anyone is like me, they try it out, decided it isn't ready for daily usage, and then forget about it. This replaces "Check for Updates" :-)

I'm trying it right now, and it has a beautiful color scheme and slick transitions, but is lacking in features. For example, it doesn't open my *.m Matlab/Octave files with the proper highlighting and I couldn't fix this in 15 minutes. I wonder if I shouldn't look for a nicer color scheme for Geany instead of a new editor.

#20I take heed when so many people are fans of something but after trying it out I feel like I'm missing out on what makes this editor so awesome.
Can someone explain to me why this is better than Textmate, MacVim or UltraEdit?
