Correct, I think it's useless. :D

I hope no emacs users use control, there is a caps lock for that. It's ok to disagree with godit, it's not meant for everybody. Frankly, just for me. And if someone else likes it, I don't mind sharing it. Go-completion facility in Emacs is

I use it for all text editing. Starting from config files and ending with Go/C/C++/Python/bash.

Emacs is big, startup is slow and you have to carry a pile of elisp scripts which fulfil your feature needs. All features has to be written in elisp of course that could be an issue too. Just a matter of taste.

Well in Go there are no makefiles, but there is a tool called "go". It can build stuff for you. It maintains an assumption that all *.go files within the same directory belong to the same package. So you can't actually store multiple packag

I agree this panic is quite annoying sometimes. Will make a proper error message when I have time. A very minor issue at the moment. You see I'm not really actively working on it anymore, I use the godit for all of my text editing tasks and

I totally agree with that, but you know how it goes with sensitive tools like editors. "Nya nya nya, but where is my feature X?" Writing the right combination of what I want is a perfect way to solve this problem.

Sure, but honestly the original complaint was implying that godit is badly structured. Yes, I don't use Go packages for it, because it's just a small 5k lines of code project and I don't need to use 100 packages to avoid namespace clashes.

Never used plan9 in my life. The reason why I wrote this editor is because I don't like bloated emacs and I use this many of its features. Go produces nice 100% statically linked binaries, so eventually I can just wget the godit to any of m

That's just my english. Of course I meant that the tab size is the same as the size of 8 space characters. And it sounds like the tab _character_ is an equivalent to 8 spaces, which is not true. Sorry for confusing description.
