Anyone use this? Pros/cons vs Textmate/vim/emacs?

It's not comparable at all, though it could be after a few man years of work.

Crashes on quit. In C mode, hitting return doesn't indent. No preferences. No toolbars or widget menus. It does attempt to color keywords but this doesn't really work, with "in" in "int" being blue and the "t" inexplicably being white, etc.

It's a text editor with fewer features than TextEdit. No idea what the big deal is. It's description as version 0.02 seems accurate.

Sad. I saw the screenshot and imagined a modern vim of sorts.
Pro: Its a new editor and shows a lot of promise.

Con: Its a new editor and needs a lot of work.
