Why I stick to Ecplipse

#1

Hello,

I miss an important feature I have in Eclipse: code navigation and completion

In Ecplise I can Ctrl+Click any function, class or var name to jump to its definition, open the file where it is declared if needed. Also I can autocomplete my typing with any function, file, varname, global name that exists in the project for the scope I am in (function, class or global scope)

Per file code outline is also a neat feature I miss.

Add those features and I’ll buy SublimeText

That’s fine. That’s the difference between an IDE and a text editor. Text editors are meant to be light-weight. On the other hand, some awesome people have used their time to give back to the community and develop plugins that add IDE-like functionality. It sounds like you really too heavily on Eclipse like a crutch to appreciate the speed and versatility this text editor has to offer (which isn’t necessarily a bad think).
