Renaming in Sublime Text

#1

Hello, I would love someone to create or tell me if there’s one plugin for at least C language, which could rename all the variables, functions etc. in the code when I’m changing one. For example:

int a;
…some code…
if(a > something)
a = something;
…some code…

So if I change a to for example b, a should change to b all over the code. It’s possible to do it with CTRL+D or Alt+F3 but that’s very inconvenient, because if you’ve got for example 2 variables:

char a, ab;

And if you want to change only a, Alt+F3 would change ab also.

If you don’t have anything selected when you press control+D, it should select the variable and any subsequent presses of control+d will only select exact matches. So a will match but ab won’t. This behavior is different if you have something initially selected prior to pressing control+D, which will select subwords as well.
