fuck sublime text for fucking up my unsaved texts
| and now, here is when the inconsistency comes in. so if you have the changelog window open, you can close the editor window as usual. but if you immediately open the editor window again (by running the ST app before closing the changelog window), you'll get a fresh new window. all your unsaved data have gone >POOF<
| >this behavior changes
in the case of two windows open, ST will prompt you to save if you close one of them. THIS behavior is the expected one if they are gonna treat the changelog window as a second window smh.
| anyway, atom seem to behave totally differently. they don't allow closing window of unsaved texts unless the window is tied to a "project" (a folder), in which case, atom will save the window state specifically for that project, so you can have multiple unsaved windows as long as they're tied to different projects which is pretty reassuring so far.

| ye, i'm the guy who switched to atom. so here's how shit go wrong.
so you know how sublime text allow you to close the window without saving, not even showing the prompt because your unsaved files will still be there the next time you open ST.
this behavior changes when there are 2 open windows, as ST can only save the state of one window.
