CursorRuler - Marks cursor position with dynamic rulers

[icylace]

Hi everyone! I created a plugin that addresses the lack of column highlighting in Sublime Text.

https://github.com/icylace/CursorRuler

Currently trying to get it into Package Control.

Feedback is encouraged,



UPDATE (2013-02-21):
CursorRuler is now available through Package Control!

Doesn't seem to work in Sublime Text 2...

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks! I made an update so hopefully you won't be seeing those errors anymore.

[adzenith]

Sweet! Thanks for the super fast fix. This looks cool.
It seems I have to restart Sublime Text whenever I change my cursor settings, though. Any chance it could use settings().add_on_change to update automatically? Sorry I'm so demanding!

[adzenith]

Oh, wait, it is using add_on_change... why is it not updating? How strange.

[adzenith]

Oh, I see! It looks like the rulers only update when a view is re-activated. I just need to switch to another view and switch back and everything's good.

[adzenith]

Also, this is really cool. Thanks!

[icylace]

Yes, good point! After you save changes to your user settings or your CursorRuler settings the changes take effect once the cursor state changes. I've updated my README to note this behavior.

Also, thanks !

UPDATE:

Also, thanks for the settings file improvements. I merged them in.

Oh...wow...I like this. Why has no one thought of this before. Thanks for this.

Much appreciated! I'm glad you like it.
