How To Install Lime Text On Ubuntu 14.04, Linux Mint 17, Elementary OS 0.3, Deepin 2014 And Other Ubuntu 14.04 Derivatives


 Hello friends.
Lime Text is a powerful and elegant text editor primarily developed in Go that aims to be a Free and open-source software successor to Sublime Text.
Lime has a few frontends (QML, command-line interface) that can be selectively used with the pluggable backend.
You can even develop your own and make it a drop-in replacement!
