Anyway, I won't be contacting this author, because he doesn't seem to be 
a talkative type (https://github.com/pd/inf-ruby-bond/issues/1,

Sublime is generally more colorful, it highlights all operators the 
same, and also number and char literals, in a different color.
Same with RubyMine, I think.
