Here was my experience trying out ZeroBrane: 1) Install software on my Ubuntu machine 2) Play around with it for a while 3) Close it and go do something else 4) Discover that ZeroBrane has hijacked a ton of file type associations, so now any remotely text-file-ish file opens in ZeroBrane 5) Swear, go looking for way to remove those associations 6) Fail completely Seriously, I have no idea where it squirreled away all its new file association settings, but after multiple attempts I have yet to find them all. So I still have to deal with certain file types trying to open in ZeroBrane that have nothing to do with Lua at all. So, ZeroBrane devs: if your goal was to make me think "oh, I hate that thing" every time I hear the word "ZeroBrane"... good news!
