I wanted a simple shell command to open a sublime project in the root of my project folder even if I wasn’t in the root, similar to how ant finds the build.xml. This seems to work on the mac, but I haven’t done much shell scripting in a while. Try it if you like. Improve it if you can.

Project file must be named .sublime-project

#/bin/sh x=`pwd`; while "$x" != "/" ] && -z "$y" ] ; do y=$(find "$x" -maxdepth 1 -name .sublime\-project) if -n "$y" ];then echo "$y" subl --project "$y" fi x=`dirname "$x"`; done
