Unleash Sublime Text Hidden Power - Screencasts, Tips

#37

I think it was just the wording, I changed it but it got undone when they re-added the speedy deletion. I just fixed it again.

Any big or unique features of Sublime not on that page yet? I think it’d help if I added more stuff so the page was less barren and more informative.

That and they both edited my talk page saying I couldn’t remove the speedy deletion notice because I was the original author when I wasn’t… geniuses over there.

The regex key bindings may be unique? shrug

Anyway, if the wikipedians feel the topic isn’t appropriate, then perhaps just let it be, it’s no big deal.

Edit: I believe the predictive character input bindings are unique, in every other editor I’m aware of, binding to a sequence of characters will interrupt normal typing.

Anh probably just a quick reaction from the amount of spam and people trying to use it as an advertisement. The first incarnation sounded very much like an ad. I cited some sources and removed all the ad bits so it should be ok now.

I’m not exactly sure what the feature was that you said :s If you want to add it yourself to the page or type up a few sentences or paragraph explaining the feature I’ll add it.

Bah they deleted it again : / Oh well, might as well leave it be. I still don’t understand their reason for deleting it. The reason was ‘Unambiguous advertising or promotion’ although I removed anything that even hinted at that. It was strictly informal.

Wikipedia sometimes is very fishy, I bet you, you go to textmate page and replicate exact same thing, change couple words to match sublimetext and make it unique to sublime wiki page, they’ll put it as advertising…

There’s quite a bit of activity on Twitter too: twitter.com/#search?q=sublime%20text%20editor

Does Sublime have an ‘official’ Twitter presence?

Cheers,

I’ll try making a page again sometime later this week. There’s a sandbox area where you can start pages where the rules are less strict and you can ask other contributers for help in making the article acceptable for the site.

Nope LOL, I can afford the license and will buy it, I just got some other things to worry right now, money wise. :stuck_out_tongue:

It just shows how wonderful sublimetext is because you can use it as much as you like without any restrictions… thats one main reason I will get my license :smile:
heres a quote from someone in twitter lol…

Oh and on twitter I talk about sublime like crazy LOL (used to, since I havent used twitter in a while). People just don’t know what they’re missing.

When ur working on sublime, when releasing a new beta (I would like to get a txt msg for that!) or the to do list for sublime LOL whatever, twitter is powerful if u use it right… :smile:

We should get this happening

A central index/package repository to list packages from various repositories/ version controls systems.
Give each package a manifest
Automatic package documenter, sourced from docstrings, bindings meta attributes, manifest etc

In editor push / pull. One button auto-packaging to push stable releases to central index ( should be as convenient as using pastie)
Ability to pull sublime-package or use version control update commands - same interface.

Versioning and dependencies.

[quote=“EJ12N”]Ok this is going to be the (un)“official” Sublime Text (Marketing?) series of tips and screencast that will show users around the world why they need sublime text editor :smile:
For now I am kind of busy but I have a lot of stuff coming to show what sublime text is capable of once you get intimate with it :wink:

Here’s a sneak peak for (new) users of what sublime is capable of! :wink:

(WATCH IN FULLSCREEN)

Basic HTML tags completion and Snippets
ej12n.com/screencasts/texteditor.html
And this is just the tip of the iceberg :smiley:
Enjoy!

P.S.: I would like to thanks sublimator, stevecooperorg and of course the creator of the beloved editor jps (Jon).
I have learned a lot from their plugins, and posts in forums, so credit where is due![/quote]

There is no sound, the shortcuts you are using do not work for me. If you are using a special package you haven’t said what.

Sublime looks so nice, but why is there such a lack of documentation?

(Please don’t get your backs up about my comment, i’m not trolling, just a person who sees everyone else having fun with something cool but can’t join in)

If you go to the support page it has documentation…
sublimetext.com/support
with a link to the nice guide Getting Started With Sublime by sublimator

the snippets from first screencast are default in sublime now so you should be able to replicate what is shown… also I would recommend using the latest betas sublimetext.com/beta as they have the most up to date features.fixes that the community asks for…

You can also download the PowerUser package that contains all you see in my screencasts plus some goodies get it at: PowerUser package for power users

I would also recommend sublimator packages at: bitbucket.org/sublimator, specially webdevelopment and zencoding if you do web coding :smile:

Last but not least use what I call the “packages repository” located at: sublimetextwiki.com/ which has couple useful packages for all sorts of things all created by the community.

Have a look around the forums for 10-15mins, familiarize yourself you’ll soon be having some serious sublime fun :stuck_out_tongue:

Sublime is not your typical editor so just like another great editor VIM it takes time to familiarize with it but once you get it, it’s on! you are on your way to become a sublimetext ninja! :stuck_out_tongue:
