Sublime Text 2 Build 2181

Re:Sublime Text 2 Build 2181 by mise on Wednesday February 22, 2012 @06:39AM (#3620457)

My main objective with Sublime is to master the keyboard shortcuts. Stuff like (on the PC) Ctrl+D to select the current word, and repeat for next occurrences. This starts up a multiple-selection that you can just type and all selected occurrences are replaced.

I forked a GitHub Gist from others and tweaked it a bit, for reference to useful shortcuts: https://gist.github.com/1736542

We're evaluating Sublime Text 2 right now, and for me that alone is a killer feature that is likely to earn them their new customer unless anything desperately show-stopping turns up between now and when they make the official release.

My only wish is that it the feature was just slightly more flexible, if only having a corresponding keystroke to deselect/skip an instance. It's so darned useful that it actively annoys me now if I use the same term in two different contexts and can't separate out just one of them, even though no other editor/IDE I use has this feature at all! :-)

I'm starting to figure out the Python integration now, though, so maybe I'll be able to set that up myself in due course, which really would convince me to spend real money on the software...

Wow, very useful, thanks. There's a useful comment to the gist I had no idea about: Ctrl/Cmd X,C, and V all operate on the whole line if nothing is selected. That's a clever way for it to work.

That reference is super useful. If you're on a Mac you can substitue Ctrl for cmd.
