Sublime Text 3 Beta

What's the outcome you want here?

Also, you can't buy that last thing anymore

Upgrade Policy
A license is valid for Sublime Text 3, and includes all point updates, as well as access to prior versions (e.g., Sublime Text 2). Future major versions, such as Sublime Text 4, will be a paid upgrade.

The download link still points to ST2 for me?

that last thing ... no longer supported

Valid concern I guess.

Not sure what you mean.

You can still download it, but you can't buy it. You can buy ST3 and get a free copy of ST2, but you can't buy ST2. Also, I highly doubt ST2 will see another update from here on out. For all intents and purposes ST3 has been released and is the only product that will see development.

It's constantly building a DOM `as you type`, without ever slowing down. You couldn't really do that in ST2.

I strongly disagree

You can't actually buy older version of software in general (except software that is sold on phisical support). Why would ST be an exception?

Not sure what you mean.

Do you, for example, want Jon to backtrack, porting everything possible back to ST2 in a non breaking manner?

Do you want a promise of at least bug fixes for ST2?

It's not as much progress as you or I'd like, but ST3 IS progress. I'd rather see a mass transition ASAP.

What I'd like to see is a promise of bug fixes for ST2 for a reasonable period and wbond officially compensated for work in speedily porting Package Control and managing the transition.

I knew I'd get in trouble there Yeah, it's "possible", but trust me, it's not as nice.

Talking about being able to use the scoping, and even add_regions etc apis from a background thread

The smoothosity is maintained, more so than messing around with various co - scheduling set_timeout mechanisms

[lunixbochs]

sublimelint does absolutely everything in a thread and only merges with set_timeout for pretty much instant add_regions at the very end. Works really well. Every time I worry constant linting slows down the editor it turns out to be a different plugin I installed.

Yes, I love your branch of sublimelint, it saves my arse all the time
