Nah, Textmate 1.5 as it is is perfectly fine. I mean, who really needs chunked undo anyway? And opening files larger than a few hundred k? Really, just split them. They"re a bad idea anyways. Or something like incremental regex search. Real men can read the code faster than any search indexer, so who needs that? </sarcasm>

Seriously though, I agree that some incremental fixes to Textmate 1.5 might have been a saner option than a full rewrite. I for one did not wait and moved on in the meantime.

Being a user of TextMate 1.5, I don't know what issues you're referring to with "files larger than a few hundred k?" I've opened multi-megabyte XML files and dealt with them just fine. I've done regex search and replace commands, fairly complex ones, on SQL backups that are multi-megabyte without issue.

I repeat, what's the complaint?

TextMate2 is a bit rough, yes, but I don't expect better from a prerelease. As it is, it's more than enough to offer me hope that it'll be finished and that it'll be a good product.

Regex search always uses a separate Window. Call me nitpicky, but I want to see my search results highlighted while I'm typing them. Especially when it is a regex search.

Also, my Textmate regularly crashed whenever I tried to open something larger than a meg or two.
