Windows Nightly Updater

#1

I got a bit tired of manually downloading and extracting new builds of ST2 each time a nightly comes out (since there’s no built-in updater like on OS X), so made a quick app that does this for me. It currently updates from the nightly release stream and pulls the x64 portable build to the directory it is run in.

It is currently pretty raw but does the job. If people show interest I am happy to add features, such as avoiding updates if already on the latest release and choosing x86/x64 etc.

binary: github.com/downloads/peppy/Subl … pdater.exe
source: github.com/peppy/SublimeTextUpdater/

Usage:

  • Save the executable to your sublime text installation directory (only tested for portable distro)

  • When ST2 prompts that an update is available, quit and run the updater.

Use at your own risk of course :smile:.
