ehm... I'm pretty sure that all TextMate users did use a text editor previous to october 2004, and I doubt it replicate the workflow from any of these editors /exactly/! :)
Well, to be fair, you had the good sense to allow me to port BBEdit-style filter scripts with little to no effort (to pick but one of several examples). You *did* replicate everything I needed to get working: emacs keybindings (years of muscle memory), plus mac-ness (same), years of filter scripts and odd bits of code (that are more crucial to me than I let on), etc.
User-level extensibility works.
