Missing lines in tables for Sublime Text

Please, could someone look at the tables and add the missing lines for Sublime Text (at least in two tables)? I have no idea why it's not there. Thanks.

ISO-8859 in Notepad++ v 5.5

Current Version of Notepad++ seems not to support ISO-8859. 25 September 2009.

Adding Notepadqq

Why isn't notepadqq listed? I added it and it was removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.76.112.18 (talk) 18:57, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

size of editor?

There's no source for any of that, and as usual in comparison-of topics, the data are mostly wrong. In a quick check, the Debian package for vim uses 29Mb for its runtime, and 2.7Mb for the program. The table states that vim uses 2.2Mb. There's a "vim-tiny" package which is 1.2Mb. Similar comments likely apply to the whole column. TEDickey (talk) 08:47, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

I don't even think that the column does have any encyclopedic value. I'd agree to a complete removal. Tuxman (talk) 22:39, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

TSE (Semware editor) license?

The article claims the semware editor were now BSD-licensed, but it seems like the source code is not available to the public? 2003:D3:873C:FC00:F510:3D09:813B:3BB5 (talk) 15:42, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
