#1

Idea comes from cmplayer.

I think a similar feature would look, feel, and fit great in to sublime text
a hotkey that you press and a panel slides/shows from the left side overlaying Side-bar
and in there all the files you have had open in sublime text over time.

Or maybe better not some other panel, but inside side-bar, instead of open files/folders the content would change to history.

I know about file history plugin, or navigating “file>open recent” but this idea is not only about a functionality all on its own,
its also about the feel, the execution, ease of use of the feature.

Probably theres a lot more on the plate for sublime than polishing file history, but still, wanned to put the idea out here

seeing as development resumed at fast pace, I just wanned to give this idea a bump, so that theres bigger chance that devs will see it and maybe like it

About any version control system could do this, no?

dont think so, Its mostly about the interface
also sublime is multipurpose editor, so any config file anywhere on the system would benefit from this
