Sublime Text 2 - "Better" than Textmate?

Sublime Text 2 is a new cross platform code and text editor available for free download. It has great support for Textmate themes, bundles, languages, etc. Since it's available on Linux, Mac, and Windows, it makes for a great internationalized editor for multi-platform users.

There are some very sexy and innovative features in Sublime Text 2 but you wouldn't know it form this video. Don't let this put you off - check it out for your self.

@Birknasty I think it's a chrome web app.

What app/utility do you have that brings up that wheel that looks like fb/twitter/tumblr? Around 1:34

One thing I hate in Sublime that if you have only one line selected and click TAB to indent line, it will replace with tab instead of indenting. So I have to select more than one line. Is there fix for that?

Another one: if I make text selection, ctrl+shift+d clone only that selection, instead of cloning line. Is there way to disable that too?

I came from Intype to Sublime Text 2.

@ggwicz it supports snippets and themes, but for example it doesn't support the Ruby on Rails bundle which is the main reason I'm using Textmate

[ggwicz]

@drakzov it supports a lot of TM bundles and TM themes.

[drakzov]

You're wrong - it doesn't support TM bundles, which is the main reason I'm not switching.
