BUG REPORT. Windows XP 32-bit. Steps to repeat:

1) Open an existing file.
2) Make some changes
3) Close ST X without saving
4) When prompted to save the file, press "Yes"
5) * crash *

...In short, no, I don't think it makes any sense to purchase a license to Sublime Text if your interest is only for Sublime Text X. Wait until there's a public version available and give that a spin first.

I'm probably not getting this right, but just to be sure. Does this mean, that X will have a separate licence? If I buy a SublimeText licence now, will I have to buy another one for the X version?

Full details are yet to be finalised, but at the very least all licenses purchased since Sublime Text X was announced will be eligible for a free upgrade.

A question about X' mini display frame. Will it be possible to move this to the left side via some setting?

The way it is right now is a pain in the ass on a 1920x1200 or higher resolution. Given how Latin-based orthography languages go from left to right, your eyes are constantly moving left to right to correlate the editor frame with the mini display frame.

This is what made SublimeText so incredibly nice to use since it's on the left side.

I heavily use a double vertical view and focusGroup and moveToGroup in my workflow ... do you plan on supporting those anytime soon? Sublime X is looking pretty awesome!

The sidebar is ugly, its why i stay with the old tab version.
You should make the sidebar very beautiful, its the Sublime Text !

The sidebar is ugly

+1 for a dark side bar!

Personally, after getting used to the side bar instead of Tabs, it is much easier to see open buffers in the sidebar. Although, I think the best approach may be to add auto-hiding of the side bar and/or minimap so that they don't get in the way of normal editing. I have to say I never use the minimap. Although it is 'cool', it really doesn't buy me anything. I want to, at a minimum, be able to hide it altogether (like in non-X SublimeText).

That being said, I believe Jon's plan is to add auto-hide the side bar already, so we just need to wait for that to get folded in... *poke*

does hide-tree option available in this version?

or when it will be included into the source?

I tend to have a certain group of files always open, no matter what `project` I'm working on.

Is it possible if I have different 'sessions' of them at the same time I'll have versioning issues? It's possible I'll lose changes if I forget to save any modifications stored only in the session?

If you have the same files open, and modified, in multiple projects, then each project will have its own copy of the file. You wont lose changes, but it is possible to clobber them on save: Imagine having two projects, both with the same file open, and each having different unsaved changes. If you save the file with project A open, then switch to project B, then you won't see the just saved changes, as you'll still have the copy within project B visible. At this point, you can either hit undo, which will revert to the on disk version, or hit save, which will clobber the on disk version.

Storing all modified buffers centrally is possible (i.e., so if the one buffer is open in two projects, the contents will be mirrored), but I'm not entirely keen on this approach - it would mean unsaved changes to a file in one project spread to that file in every other project, which may also not be what you want.
