Ah yep, web advertising. A very interesting subject. It's a shame to have to keep up in order to be able to avoid ad display in the near future.

BTW, as I recently have read something about "20 years of WWW":
The WWW (Google's reason to exist) was developed on a NeXT. So, maybe, we shall blame Apple?

Well, Directory Opus does not do it so different, right?

I already knew that. 

Oh, and BTW, as we are not talking about "free" editors anymore anyway:
Has anyone checked out this yummy editor?

For what I see, it rocks.

 

If it wasn't so pricey ...

Tuxman, what's your issue with E?

-f0dder (November 11, 2010, 03:14 AM)

All these "TextMate-style" text editors are very similar to each other. A small set of features, and the only "superior" feature is the ability to use bundles, oh well... (also, e uses Cygwin for implementing that! Ridiculous.)

Maybe I haven't quite found the "wow" of it yet, but I'll try some other day.
Probably.

Full ACK @ ecaradec.

UltraEdit has some text display glitches for me.  
A pity, as I'm like "well, let's try some other editor than Notepad++ as my Vim fallback" right now, and UE does what it should.
(At least it does way better than e and InType and whatever they are called.)

So - still no way out. 

(n.b.: PSPad tends to be slooooooow on my system, so... whyever.)

« on: November 08, 2010, 06:43 PM »

The Bat! is a solid mailing application. I spend some time with it now and then, and if I wouldn't be a Thunderbird-addict, I would probably use it exclusively. It's just that it came too late.

Hm, OK - forgot about the trial.

I'll trial it next week, not really much time right now. Last time I tested it, I was not really convinced anyway.

Well, I still use Vim, so the "additional" pricing does not make it a no-brainer to me, so I am just wondering...

But e looks not mighty enough to be worth the price...

When used inside, some modern laptops won't even allow me to turn on a lamp.

Finding a good laptop is hard these days. All these "glare-type" displays actually suck. Dell and HP seem to be the only companies who still sell "business" laptops without a lot of disadvantages. A pity, really.

There's still FrostWire. Who cares if the LimeWire software is dead when the Gnutella network is still alive?
Also, eMule will survive it anyway.
