More like the Dwarves' ring (er, editor) taken by one of the Nazgul rather than one Editor to Rule Them All. Sublime Text is that d@#$&d *PROPRIETARY* at it$ wor$t and its supposed free/trial version is *NAGWARE* at best. Even if Sublime is fully GPL-compliant, still, someone is just BOUND to put its best features into another F/OSS editor, e.g., geany.

Seems to me that vi and Emacs have absolutely nuthin' to worry about!!

That was my first reaction also. My second reaction was "the author must be an idiot". The third was "Did Matt Hartley write this?"

But no, it's just another example of Linux Journal's long slow fall.
