Weekend project - my first Sublime Text 2 plugin. If you have package control installed, no need to go to the Github page, just search "Hacker News" and you should be able to find it.

Sublime Text 2 isn't too far off from being able to read mail, is it?
How is ST2 plugin development? Is the API stable? Well-documented?

Maybe an email client could be my next plugin ;-)
It's not the best documented API I've worked with but it's also nowhere near the worst. There's also a very active IRC channel on Freenode (#sublimetext) which I found helpful. The API docs are here: http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/api_reference.html
I borrowed quite a bit by reading the source of other plugins too (especially PlainTasks, a very good To Do list tool for Sublime). I think this is pretty much essential to creating a plugin as there are parts that just aren't documented very well, or at least I couldn't find it.
Finally, Sublime borrows quite a bit from Textmate. The theme syntax, for example, is taken from Textmate - so you can always read the documentation for Textmate's API, which is somewhat better documented.
