Coding in full screen? For elite hackers who don't need to test the thing they're coding?

Whatever I'm testing is just a swipe away. No big deal.

You'd perhaps have more luck if you had an email address on your profile ;) Anyway, here's a few invite links for HN: [Edit: Sorry, all gone!] I should point out that it's a bit buggy, and still an alpha. So don't expect to be able to use it as your everyday editor just yet.

Just redeemed #2 on the list, got 1 invite on signup: http://chocolatapp.com/userspace/i/?e6cc78a7ef0db35

Stolen. Someone PM me email if they would like the next invite on the chain.

What assurance do I have that http://j.mp/text-mate-full-screen will not return "rm -rf ~/*"?

You don't have that assurance whenever you install anything.

> How does it matter how its done as long as it works Executing unknown scripts hiding behind obfuscated URLs is generally not considered a good idea. Given that this is a very non-standard and decidedly odd way of distributing a TextMate plug-in, a large degree of skepticism is warranted.

I also was skeptical. A quick read of the contents of the shortened urls reveals nothing nefarious, however.

Did you read the contents in your standard web browser, like I did? What if it sent back a different set of commands if the user agent matched that of cURL?

Well, you're still free to curl the contents of the URL into a standard text file, and view it with the text editor of your choice (maybe even TextMate!).
