Can't type a "/" (forward slash)

#1

Ever since install on windows 7 64 bit I have not been able to type the forward slash “/”. It works fine in all other applications I have. DO I have to do something special to get it to work? This is a text editor so I would assume no. any help would be appreciated. :neutral_face:

I can't type slash

That is odd. Is this a clean install? Are there any errors in the console (can be opened through “ctrl+`”)

It’s probably a plugin such as AutoFileName. Check the console. If there are no errors,

sublime.log_commands(True) sublime.log_input(True)
See what it printed out in the console

I was getting this reporting back to me:

chr evt: / (0x2f)
command: close_tag_on_slash

I do have the following packages: view in browser, TAG, and Zen Coding

I just performed a clean instal and have reinstalled all the following packages. everything seems to be working now.

Can you please post or mail me the exact text and cursor position when you typed the “/”, I want to fix close_tag_on_slash, I’m not noticing any problem in this plugin, using it a lot.

I had the same problem, found that disabling the Tag plugin solves it.

Got same issue for Build 3047. Disabling the Tag package helped.
