However Redcar it is also compatible with texmate bundles. So it is more like emacs.
don't mean to nitpick but textmate bundle support doesn't an emacs make.
redcars extensibility and openness make it more like emacs.
Yes, however the point I was making was more simple: a better emacs, but respecting what emacs created: texmate. A better texmate, but respecting what texmate created: redcar. But if you are nitpicking, it is not as simple, and at this moment it is more like a promise. But you are right that redcar and emacs have a more similar philosophy.
