Sublime Text 2 20110130

#1

A new version of Sublime Text 2 is out now, fixing some crash bugs. Apologies in advance for the version spam, Iā€™ll stop the daily updates when the critical issues are sorted.

There is also a collection of other minor fixes, including an easy way to change the font size, more complete handling of key bindings on OS X, and Ctrl+Backspace (Alt+Backspace on OS X) and friends now work in the panels.

Great! Dont be shy, keep publishing a new alphas and betas. It isnā€™t necessary to make a post on blog for each beta, you can just publish new urls into twitter(yeah, weā€™re follow you!) and keep one url at the site for ā€œlatest minefield-versionā€.
Much better to update each day, rather than waiting for something unknown or new big release.

Amen to that!

Missing feature which I really really miss at the moment. Bookmarks!

Can we get them soon please Jon?

Sublime Text X was having weekly releases, and I got the impression that was a bit too frequent if anything. Iā€™m tentatively aiming for a two week release cycle for the Sublime Text 2 Alpha, but Iā€™ll see how it goes.

Bookmarks are high on the priority list, it shouldnā€™t be too long until they make an appearance.

What about having automatic updates? A bit like Chrome does, if you can do that?

Sweet :smiley: Big missing feature for me.

hi,

first: congratulations for sublime 2, it is a great editor, even in the current alpha state!

one small request: could you re-add ā€œclose all otherā€ and ā€œclose allā€ to the tabs/menu?

Also, is code folding going to be an option on 2?

A really neat feature that makes life so much nicer at times :smile:

The new version hangs on startup if I have my personal plugins file in the packages directory. If I move the file out of the packages directory and start Sublime Text, I can drag it back in and then open it and save it and the plugins work fineā€”the file just canā€™t be there while Sublime Text is starting up for some reason.
I can send you this file if you like, or other info.

Why? Every code folding capable editor Iā€™ve come across doesnā€™t automatically fold code unless you click the line that should fold.

Itā€™s unnoticeable if done properly and shouldnā€™t need an option to turn it off.

They will be coming ASAP.

Sidebar keyboard navigation will be coming at some point too, itā€™s been frequently requested.

Iā€™m not planning to implement code folding until version 3.

If you could email me this file, itā€™d be great - thanks.

Thereā€™ll still be a few horizontal pixels showing an option I donā€™t want to use, polluting the optical cleanliness between a code, and a line numbers :slight_smile:
Iā€™m not against implementation. Iā€™m sure for some people it is really helpful, but Iā€™m personally not using it, and find it distracting. Iā€™ll just like the option to turn it off (if itā€™ll get implementet).

Thanks for all the great work, Iā€™ve switched to Sublime2 even though its still in Alpha!

One feature request: in the project pane, if you could make folders name when clicked to expand/collapse that would be great, instead of having to click on the little arrows.

Not if you put them next to the bookmarks, thatā€™s how SciTE works anyway :smile:

Amazing! Iā€™m sure I speak for many Mac users when I say, ā€œThanks for saving us from a bunch of horribly average editorsā€

So one feature request - file compare? You do such a great job with the double/triple vertical window layouts, seems like a logical next step.

+1 to folding, easy sidebar navigation and INTERNAL file compare. it can save time for plugin developers(i mean developers of plugins for git/hg/bzr/svn).

Is everything ok with ā€œAdd Folder To Projectā€ option? I tried to add different folders to my project - but even simplest example with two files in it failed to add. ā€œAdding folder ā€¦ā€ message is displayed in status bar and when it is disappears new folder is not added to Folders section in side bar. Files from this folder are not accessible with ā€œGoto Anythingā€ dialog either.
I checked it in sublime x (last alpha I installed is 20110123) - it looks ok - same folders I tried in Sublime 2 were sucessfully loaded into project. Is something changed in this feature from 20110123 alpha or is this a bug?

The only change should be the disallowing of duplicate folders, but if youā€™re getting the ā€œAdding folderā€¦ā€ message then youā€™re making it past that check. Could you let me know which platform youā€™re running on?
