Sudo fails
This should now just not-work, rather than crash, in 2038.
Running subl with sudo isn’t going to work, because all subl does is send the filename off to the real Sublime Text 2 application. This isn’t ideal, but there doesn’t seem to be an easy way around it.
any chance sublime will ask for administrative privileges when editing files, that needs to be sudo’d
Yeah, this is something that gets me all the time. With TextMate, you could do:
mate /etc/hosts
Then edit away, then hit save and it would ask you for your password to do the save. It’s one of the few remaining occasions where I resort to going back to TextMate, after the obligatory:
Memory lapse -> subl /etc/hosts -> Save -> DOH! -> mate /etc/hosts -> Edit -> Save -> Enter Password -> Done

This happens at least a half-dozen times a day for me.
