>it's not open source

I'm glad it's not, because if it were open source, it'd look and feel like Windows 98 software (Notepad++). Open source serves developers, not users.

>it's not really customizable

How strange, cause my build is.

>it's not free

In the Winrar sense, yeah. You get an unintrusive popup in the background after a few saves.

>it has python scripts... really? python? why?

This one's kind of like an appeal to the current year in social issues. There's no substance to even respond to.

1. Open source serves developers, and I'm a developer (as all the Sublime Text users, I guess).

2. I don't mean "change the syntax color", I mean, change every single pixel of its UI.

3. it's not free, it means that IT'S NOT FREE, you can just evaluate it, and then you MUST buy it. If you are using it for anything more than evaluating, you are violating its license.

4. seems fair, I don't really like python, and I think that JS based editors are much easier to hack and to develop plugins for.
