ReText 3.0 has been released today, bringing many improvements:

A quick update for those of you who are using the WebUpd8 Sublime Text 2 PPA: until now, the PPA had Sublime Text 2 development builds only but starting today, you can install either Sublime Text 2 beta or the latest Sublime Text 2 development build, from the same PPA. The recommended package is Sublime Text 2 beta, because it's more stable.

Add the Sublime Text 2 PPA using the following commands:

Sublime Text 2 is an excellent TextMate-like text editor that runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OSX.

Bluefish, an amazing cross-platform text editor, has reached version 2.2.0, finally getting GTK 3 support.

Other changes in Bluefish 2.2.0:

• redesigned search and replace function which now supports search and replace in files on disk
• a lot faster syntax scanner
• the search is integrated into the main window
• context-aware toggle comment function
• autocompletion of user-defined functions
• jump function that immediately brings you to the definition function
• support for new languages such as Google Go, Vala and Ada

Install Bluefish 2.2.0

Bluefish doesn't have an official PPA, but if you don't want to build it from source in Ubuntu, you can use an unofficial one such as Klaus Vormweg's PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:klaus-vormweg/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bluefish

However, you can't import files from Google Docs so the files need to be saved locally if you want to update them.

Other new features:

cd ~/.config/sublime-text-2/Packages/
