You do lose the ability to jump to the exact line an error is on which is a mild nuisance but nearly enough to make me stop using ST.
Damn! There goes the whole of the Linux/ARM community!
ARM devices are happening.. without having seen your codebase I can't speak for how hard it'd be to build for a new target, but given that you're targeting win32 and posixy systems already it seems achievable.
Wouldn't you much rather be the badass that works everywhere than snrk at a growing niche?
Android. It's sitting on a desk near you.
A complex resource-hungry IDE is just what the Android platform has been missing.
While you're at it, add Common Lisp support. That is literally the #1 request on the announcement.
Most Android devices are sold free with contract or with low tier phones to people who don't care much about smartphones. As for Android tablets, they don't sell that well, period. That's the huge majority of Android users. A minor one is geeks like us, open source fans, etc, that prefer it to iOS. (And that still leaves tons of geeks preferring iOS).
If you need any proof that the majority of Android users are not that technical, just check these "relative number of active devices": http://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html
Half a year later, only 10 percent have the latest release. And over 50% are two releases behind.
Neither the majority not the minority of Android users are much likely to buy a programmers' editor for their Android phone or tablet.
There have been plenty of interest in Sublime Text 2 builds for Android, I've seen people ask about it for both the Exynos Chromebook and the jailbroken Surface RT.
Amazingly, I can use ALL of my desktop software (except VirtualBox) on Linux/ARM and it's just like using an Intel machine. The only thing missing are proprietary apps like ST that can't have an ARM build generate for it automatically.
