Is it really too much to ask for a text-editor that doesn't feel like a virtual machine and has rich text and has indentation/folding and community-run-plugin support and support for images and native multiplayer and. NOTHING! If I was on the floor, licking their feet, paying $100 million per hour, begging the Atom Devs to just add b-bold text and nothing else to their little school-project app, they'd just scoff at me and tell me to f*** off, before kicking my teeth in for a laugh. If I had $10 Billion to spend and was looking for a light-weight text editor, what could I buy?. There is NO excuse in letting f****** StikyNot.exe be ' THE DEFINITVE light-weight text editor' (I use Atom for text collecting archiving and essays Sticky Note for small scale data presentation for myself). "THIS IS A CODE EDITOR, NOT A TEXT EDITOR!!! REEEEEEEEEEE!!!! YOU'RE AN IDIOT!!! WHY WOULD A CODE EDITOR NEED RICH TEXT?! NO LANGUAGE OUT RIGHT NOW CAN INTERPRET TEXT FORMATTING, Y-YOU MORON!!!!! AN EDITOR CAN'T BE BOTH A TEXT EDITOR AND A CODE EDITOR!!! Y-YYOU'RE JUST SOME STUPID KID!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!"Īnd don't give me BS like " well, the software isn't currently set up in the requi-" Shut up. Call me crazy, but I think there may be merit in breaking away from this mentality of: I mean, I get it, ~100% of you are Ix Tx types so this is likely too much for you, but considering this is a HUUUUUUUUUUGE gap in the market. Though I'm sure maintaining the status quo is more important than pivoting the business to a more profitable / less-dead direction. Allowing the user to make text " bold" or " italic" would be FAR too CRAZY and " out-of-the-box" for the the devs, I'm sure. it's an absolutely piece-of-shit of a text editor that lacks even basic functionality. I REALLY, and I can't emphasise this enough, REEEEAAAAAAAAAAALLY!!!!!!!!!! wish this wasn't the case, but this, apparently "dead" (according to the threads here), programmer-text-editor is the best plain text editor in existence. Atom is * literally** just Sublime Text, but less retarded. with the "WHAT THE F\**" infuriating panel mechanism. Sublime Text was pretty good, but had some annoying problems (esp. I've spent f****** YEARS looking for an alternative to Notepad, Notepad++ and Sticky Notes. It's like using this text editor has a prerequisite of having 20 years as a software dev. But, literally, 100% of them have been BY programmers, FOR programmers. In my year or two using Atom, I've probably seen thousands of " How do I x in Atom?" " Why can't I y in Atom?" etc.
