A great initiative. Maybe we can even get it running on Pandora, but it's likely going to be a headache:

- Python 3

- Go

- Qt5

- Go-Qt5 bindings

A lot of dependencies that we don't have at all out of the box. 

Here are the stated goals of the project : 

  • ☑ 100% Open source
  • ☑ Compatible with Textmate color schemes (which is what ST is using)
  • ☑ Compatible with Textmate syntax definitions (which again is what ST is using)
  • ☐ Compatible with Textmate snippets
  • ☐ Compatible with Sublime Text’s python plugin API. I’ll probably never implement this 100%, only the api bits I need for the plugins I use.
  • ☐ Compatible with Sublime Text’s keybindings and settings
  • ☐ Compatible with Sublime Text snippets
  • ☐ Sublime Text’s Goto anything panel
  • ☑ Multiple cursors
  • ☑ Regression tests (Programming in Go makes it trivial and even fun to write them ;) )
  • ☐ Support for plugging in a custom parser for more advanced syntax highlighting.
  • ☐ Terminal UI (Maybe I’ll work on a simple non-terminal UI at some point)
  • ☐ Cross platform (It appears to be compiling and running on OSX and Linux last I tried, but needs further validation.)
