Talk:E (text editor)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not Notable: This is an annoying tag, in my opinion. One person's kerfluffle is another person's burning interest. Isn't this, at base, an arbitrary value judgment? I think the e editor is notable because it's the only Windows editor that supports TextMate bundles, and TextMate is probably the premier Rails editor (and the most notable OS X text editor by a long shot). So, why is it not notable? --Gtcaz 18:53, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I commented out this paragraph in the article:
- It's primary motivation is to make collaboration effortless. Instead of the traditional way of making collaborative editors, where everybody edits in the same text at the same time, it works more like a live revision control system. This makes it possible to work asynchronously and in disconnected groups and still easily track who did what and when.
Because a) it's not particularly encyclopedic (i.e. notable, interesting, informative), b) it's extremely vague and doesn't describe how the feature works, and c) it reads like advertizing copy. descriptions like "make collaboration effortless" can go on product leaflets, but don't belong in wikipedia. Also, as far as I can tell, that feature isn't implemented yet.
- Is there any opensource counterparts? 75.15.231.226
[edit] E out of beta.
Updated the article accordingly, also mentioned the planned GNU/Linux version.
