I'm so lazy and it's too easy to click "Cancel"... I have a license but a year after re-installing ST I still haven't added it :/

Just search your inbox for "sublime license", and copy the license into Sublime. The whole operation takes me below 1 minute on a new machine.

It'd be nice if there was a command line option for this actually. I have my machine setup almost entirely automated, but this is one of the manual steps I have to do.

As far as I know, it used to be just a matter of writing the plaintext license into the appropriate file: https://forum.sublimetext.com/t/license-installation-silentl...

That's still supported, and the same technique works for Sublime Merge, fwiw.

Completely off topic but would you care to describe how you install your system automatically?

It's really nothing fancy, just based on strap[1] but then modified a bit. I keep my dotfiles in github and leverage homebrew for installing pretty much everything.
