TEXTMATE 2 CODE

TextMate: LetвЂ™s take the above example, the unordered list. It starts an html tag by both opening and closing the tag. Wrapping the gutsД«oth applications do the same thing. So even if you donвЂ™t have the entire line selected, you can perform the keystroke repeatedly and move the same line up or down your code. When the keystroke is performed, the lines moves in accordance to the arrow key pressed, but the cursor also move with that line. Sublime: Performs the same when the entire line is selected and when the cursor is on a line of code. The rule is: the line the cursor is sitting at is the line that will be moved. So if you perform the keystroke again, you will be moving a different line of code.

BUT, if you have your cursor on the line of code, but itвЂ™s not selected the line of code moves and the cursor stays put. You can continue to move the selected line up or down multiple lines by repeating the command. TextMate: When you have an entire line selected (cmd-L), it will move the line up or down one line at a time. There are some subtle differences in the two though, so read on.

Sublime and TextMate: cmd+ctrl up and down arrows вЂnuff said Moving lines of code up and down The reason TM needs the shift modifier is because cmd-L performs a вЂњGo to line #вЂќ command. I donвЂ™t think I need to explain what this keystroke is doing. Your whole team can be using the same editor, no matter which platform theyвЂ™re on. Works on all platformsД¬lear choice there.

And my day to day, may be completely different than yours.

I have gone through, and compared the tool based on what I am doing day to day. So the cries of вЂњTextMate 2 is going to be betterвЂќ mean nothing to me right now. IвЂ™ve seen the screen shots of TM2 and canвЂ™t form a REAL opinion of it without using it. So, it took about a month from the time I saw Sublime, to the time I gave it a try. I thought, thereвЂ™s NOTHING Sublime is doing that TextMate (TM) isnвЂ™t. I had seen a few friends starting to use Sublime Text 2 and, at first, totally ignored their praise of the product. TextMate did some amazing things, but their lack of updates started to wear on me.
