i'm part of those weird guys that 'HATE' text wrapping..... in text mate disabling text wrapping leads the gutter to disappear when scrolling horizontally .... do the gutter has to be attached that way to the text? i don't think so ...it should be a static bar on the left of the GUI..... no? seems crazy to all of you ?
thanks

It'll be static down the road -- while I'm “prototyping” it's easier to keep it as part of the text view.
Kind regards Allan
Talking about wrapping.... I loved the discrete red dotted line which indicated where the current wrap is Why change it to grey out the area to the right? Might just as well make the document horizontally unresizable if you grey it out.
I just signed up to the list so it's very likely that I've missed a previous discussion on this topic. Please fill me in :)
I would love to see many GUI-settings in the preferences window. That's one of the hardest things for me, settle with a GUI. My heart skipped a few beats when then status bar was moved to the top of the window. How ugly wasn't that :) I immediatly thought "Lucky I haven't bought it yet" but now it's back where it belongs, and so is my reasoning. Proberbly would be pretty easy to make that configurable so the user could choose to have it wherever he/she wiches.
More suggestions on what could fit into the preferences is a checklist on what menus to show. I'm one of those that don't use the Behaviour- & Navigation menu.
Would be great to just let the user choose which menus to have visible to make the over all apperance of the app more 'easy-navigated'.

There's a list archive, the highlight was requested by several people. The release notes mention how to disable it, although it'll still be a straight line (instead of dotted), but it won't do the highlight to the right of it.
I would love to see many GUI-settings in the preferences window.
And I would like to concentrate a bit on actual productivity features (and missing functionality) before I start to maintain dozen of GUI settings! ;)

Yes, the horror if you'd actually supported the development of a product you seem to use and care about with $39...
Kind regards Allan
My money doesn't grow on trees
I'm a poor student you know :)
In a few years they will be growing on trees and then I will hopefully support products that "aren't yet what I'm looking for but someday perhaps will be" :)
I'm seriously in lack of money so I will most certainly not buy TM until the 30th of october or something. Pretty logic for a customer to evaluate the product first.
No offense, I like TM and will very likely buy it. Hope the money is as good then.
Kind Regards Ivar
ps. thanks for the tip about the archive! Still thou, couldn't find anything realted to the greyed out area. Only found something about setting a custom wrap column. Point me in the right direction and I will quiet down :)
