Took a look at ST again. I forgot that it doesn’t let you move the sidebar to the right. This may seem trivial but it’s a blocker for me: https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/303 Also took at look at Nova. AFAICT it doesn’t let you open more than one window for a single project. So if I want two files from the same project side-by-side I have to make the project window double-width, split it to two panes, then open the files I want in each pane. I hate programs that try to take over from the window manager. With TextMate, I just double click the tab and it pops open into its own window that I can move wherever I want. TextMate also lets me open the same file in two windows, useful when I need to consult one part of the file while editing another. I see no way to do that in Nova. This is basic stuff that Emacs has had for decad
