ARM build?

[phosphoer]

How likely is it that we could get an ARM linux build of Sublime Text 2? Just got my Raspberry Pi in the mail today and would love to put Sublime on it. : D

Im here on the forum for the same reason. Looking for a RasPi/ARM port. Happy to pay for a license, but that's the platform I need it for.

@sublimetext dev:
I would like to post a link about how to cross-compile raspberrypi's armhf binary with relative less fuss, in case you want to do a quick compile test using your current linux source.

Note that the debian wheezy image for raspberrypi has extensive packages available, so i believe if you can compile the linux binary in debian without much difficulties, they should be easily compilable in armhf as well.

This build would also be greatly appreciated by the people that use picuntu on Rk3066 based mini computers like the mk808(b), UG802.

Or people who have the Samsung Chromebook that has the ARM chip, as it's a 250 USD laptop that can run Ubuntu.

I just started using sublime and really like the features.
I too am missing the arm build (i've got a chromebook) and i don't think i will continue to use sublime / purchase a license if i cannot use the software everywhere.

I see people asking for an arm build everywhere but have not seen a statement by the developer.
Has anyone got more information?

Throw another request for an ARM version on the pile. Was really hoping to get ST2 on my Chrubuntu install.

I wrote to the sales team and they say no arm build is planned because the invested time wouldn't pay of. I hop that as soon as more requests come in they might change their mind.

Let me clarify that statement: Given we only have a finite amount of time, any time spent maintaining an ARM build would take away time from other areas. At this stage, I believe this would result in a net negative to Sublime Text's users.

So after Sublime Text 3 is out, we can hope that an ARM build will see the light of day?
