Miroslav Cibulka		 en You can't set syntax on txt file ... so all files with wrong extension will be ignored. Otherwise in some ways better than competition, but this prevents me from using it at all.

JOSE ERNESTO Martins		 This is one of the worst extensions i have ever seen. It does not support many languages, and it is completely broken. I will uninstall this.

Danny Schlitt		 Love the themes and the formatting for json! Please add line wrap support and I'd rate 5 stars, some json strings I need to view are simply wayyyyyyyy to long for one line.

Muntashir Al-Islam		 One of the best syntax highlighter out there. It also reformats the file, which is also a clever idea.
