Change build command based on context of build request
Jump To File
I love the Jump To Definition action. It would be nice to have the same thing for files. For example, if you place your cursor within a string in a PHP file that contains a file name/path, it could try to open it. Same thing in other languages, line Django template files, Ruby require statements, etc.

Any good BASIC syntax highlighting packages out there?
Package Upgrade exception
I encountered a problem when Sublime does not start if package upgrade failed for some reason. Fixed with this code at PackageSetup.py:
def upgrade(appdir, userdir, pristinedir, datadir, backupdir):
packages = (glob.glob(appdir + "/*.sublime-package") +
glob.glob(userdir + "/*.sublime-package"))
for pkg in packages:
try:
upgradePackage(pkg, pristinedir, datadir, backupdir)
except:
pass

Show File in Sidebar
When you startup sublime, you have a bunch of files open. The sidebar however, shows all of the folders collapsed. So everymorning I have to uncollapse the folders. One way to solve this would be to not collapse the folders. Another interesting approach would be to have an option in the right click menu for the file's tab. When you click "Show File in Sidebar" the folders auto uncollapse to show you the file. If the a folder is not in the sidebar for the file, you could add the file's root dir, and uncollapse from there.
Use alt + arrow to move around to where you've been
One feature I love from Qt Creator / Eclipse is the fact that it remembers the places you've gone to (file + line) and you can navigate between them by using alt + left / right (back and forth).
For example, you're using a function, you realize you need to edit how the function works so you go to the function's file and edit the code, then you go back to where you where (down to the line) with alt+left. And you can use alt+right to go back to the function's file if you forgot to do something.
It also works within the same file. Though it'd be most powerful combined with the jump to declaration/definition functionnality, without it's still very useful.
Panels disappear when they don't fit in the window
Expected behavior: When the panel in question would no longer fit, resize it to 50% of the height of the window.
Steps to reproduce: Open console. Resize window until console no longer fits.

Add an entry in .theme-settings for currently active view tab
To help differentiate between active views in different groups. Currently the active view tab color is a global setting. You can set the active view tab color to help distinguish it from inactive tabs, but there is no way to easily tell which group is the currently active view. This should have its own setting so as to be customizable.
VXML and CCXML Support
I have always loved Sublime Text, and am getting into IVR, and while the regular XML support that is provided in Sublime Text is getting me by for now, it would be nice to have full CC/VXML support, for some of the custom tags that are defined, as well as the getting code highlighting for the javascript inside the XML.
Right click folder in side bar-> search this folder
I know there's different ways to do this. But I think this would be really convenient.

class names or theme components list
where the hell can one find a complete list of all the theme components (classes) and their respective configurable attributes? i've been wasting an hour googling to find just a few examples here and there, but basically nothing telling me what the full set of configurable theme component might be and all their possible values. i mean, seriously, don't the developers keep docs or something. (and yes i went to the official and unofficial docs page, both of which are a joke in terms of the depth of detail available. i am seriously pissed off--when i write code, i document everything, down to the single smallest detail possible, no matter how stupid it seems at the time regardless of all the hooting and jeering that causes from the crowd of the "it is so 'obvious' that no one will ever need to read up on it." wrong! you never know what kind of user or coder noob might use your software later and who would find an exhaustive documentation quite useful. s/he'll thank you for it. or curse you if it's missing, and rightly so. in other words, if you are gonna do something, why do a 1/2-assed job when you can give a 110%? i never understood this shoddy attitude. perfection, man. perfection. if jobs hadn't strived for it, you macbook would suck as bad as a Lenovo Thinkpad. think about that for a moment, you goddam slackers.)
anyway, rant over--this is what i am talking about:
[
{
"class": "name_of_theme_component",
"configurable_property": "desired_value",
"another_property": "desired_value"
},
{
"class": "another_theme_component",
"configurable_property": "desired_value"
}
]
selection-expand to line
in selection menu the shortcut for 'Expand to line' is not there, and 'Super+l' does not work, yet it is included in the Key Bindings - Default?
Install and run subl from .deb file on a headless server
ssh -fX server.example.com subl -w
But after installing Sublime Text 3 from the .deb file on a headless Ubuntu server, subl fails to run, printing out many lines about missing libraries:
$ subl 2>&1 | awk '{ print $NF }' | sort | uniq libcairo.so<br>libgdk-x11-2.0.so libgtk-x11-2.0.so libpango-1.0.so libpangocairo-1.0.so
I can manually install the depencies with:
$ sudo apt-get install libcairo2 libgtk2.0-0 libpango1.0-0Then it works. But it would be easier if the depencies were listed in the .deb file, so I don't have to figure out the names of all the required packages each time I install Sublime Text on a new server.
As you can see, there are no dependencies listed currently:

django, html and javascript code all in one recognition please :)
I am developing a project in Django... the only thing is, Django can use multiple formats in one file... for example it has tags that work in the html document that look like this {{variable}}.
It also has tags like this {% load staticfiles %} and {% extends 'base.html' %}...
html can also run javascript code within <script> tags but when html syntax highlighting is selected in the view menu, none of the javascript shows up correctly...
The opposite happens when you choose javascript syntax highlighting in the view menu, javascript shows up but not html...
Don't get me wrong, I think you have done an amassing job to make this super editor...
I would like to suggest that you add a Django code highlighting syntax to your already extensive list to make a mixed mode highlighting of all the different coding languages that Django, and maybe other languages use...
I hope you find this information constructive
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Chris
