I am not able to see the videos since I am currently at work, but the screenshots already look amazing. And the blog is very interesting to. Like this entry : http://www.farrarfocus.com/atom/070921.htm, that learns me about ColorForth (and GOAL, Naughty Dog's own internally developed programming language).

ColorForth looks rather incredible, I've never heard before of a language where the color has a meaning  :o . Extract from ColorForth site : "In colorForth a new word is red, green words are compiled, yellow executed. This use of color further reduces the syntax, or punctuation, needed."

And it seems Atom author wants to develop its own programming language similar in concept to ColorForth. May be interesting to follow :)

That doesn't look like any code I have ever seen before deed... It looks almost like the sort of thing you's expect from a demo editor or something along those lines.

By the way, I managed to download one of the videos in the first post by Taj and I was stunned.
