Newbie: how to turn on vintage mode

#1

Apologies for my newbie questions. Iā€™m trying to turn on vintage mode as a VI user.

Hereā€™s what the doc says
Vintage is disabled by default, via the ignored_packages global setting. If you remove ā€œVintageā€ from the list of ignored packages, youā€™ll be able to edit with vi keys:
Select the Preferences/Global Settings - Default menu item
Edit the ignored_packages settingā€¦
sublimetext.com/docs/2/vintage.html

Problem is under Sublime Text 2/Preferences, I donā€™t see Global Settings as a menu option. Any idea how to edit the ignore_packages setting?

Thanks a bunch,
R

The name has changed in the meantime. Itā€™s now called ā€œSettings - Userā€.

Just make sure to add this line:

"ignored_packages": ]

Depending on where you put this line, you might need to add a comma at the end.
