Love textmate, use it as main text editor, but it's time for Textmate 2 and its split-screen option.

TextMate needs split-screen today. It still surprises the hell out of me that they haven't issued a 1.X point release that adds this feature. WTF?

That's the thing that really depresses me about TextMate, I use it and like it a lot, but it's starting to feel old and could really use a fresh coat of paint and some new pictures on the wall.

Or the Windows clone, e-Texteditor. Macs are far too expensive in Africa...

Macs are overpriced everywhere Sapient, I don't think its specific to Africa ;-)

Good point, maybe we just have less money in Africa :D

A Macbook Pro is currently going for around $3500(USD), so its really hard for me to convince myself its worth it.

Whoah, that's definitely not the price everywhere in the world. I guess they really are expensive in your country. (I wouldn't quite generalize to Africa – I live in Africa, too, and I don't think Macs are that expensive here.)

South Africa, though to be honest, that is for the 17" version.

VIM is awesome, spectacular even, but if you're on a Mac, you just simply have to use Textmate. It's really just an amazing piece of software.

Who else here is totally stoked about the free 2.0 update?

Love TextMate. Also, need TextMate 2 _now_.

Use the latest 'unstable' build of Intype (www.intype.info) on Windows daily.

I'm also a TextMate lover. +1
