* Disable 'auto-pair characters'. Don't insert crap in my text, just don't do it. Ever.
* Disable 're-indent pasted text'. Again, stop messing with my stuff.
* Enable line numbering
* Delete all the bundles and mess, leaving syntax highlighting. Making sure auto-indent stuff is gone.
* Enable soft tabs, 4. Not perfect since arrow keys still skip over spaces randomly which is irritating. (Depends if you're on a 'tab stop').
I liked it enough to pay for it, but wish it'd just be a good text editor rather than a "My! It looks like you're writing a factory pattern. Would you like to start the factory pattern wizard?" (Hyperbole but you get what I mean).
The auto-pairing annoyed me at first, but when using other editors I find myself expecting them to give me a matching close brace whenever I type an open brace. It's grown on me.
