Smart tabs for code indentation

Matt Long hace 14 años actualizado por Kroum Tzanev hace 12 años 3
Just started playing with ST2 today -- so far I love it. One thing I would like to see is better code indenting. The "best" way I've found is "smart tabs" that use tabs for indent and spaces for alignment, See: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SmartTabs

The best thing about this is that it survives being opened in a variety of editors without looking like garbage.

Open, edit, validate, package EPUB format

Chris Rogers hace 12 años actualizado por tomr hace 12 años 1

  • Open and edit within an EPUB archive. 
  • Package a project folder as an EPUB.
  • Validate EPUB package using epubcheck. (lowest priority)

Allow user to specify line-ending type

Nicholas Boll hace 13 años actualizado por Joel Thornton hace 13 años 1
TextMate allows you to specify line-endings. If you do SaveAs, Line Endings is an option. Classic Mac is CR, Windows is CRLF and Unix is LF. It is often useful to change line-endings of legacy files or to set up line-endings for picky servers.

'Open with...' from the sidebar

Zander Martineau hace 14 años actualizado por Zander Martineau hace 14 años 1

Textmate, Coda etc all have a very useful option to open the currently right-clicked file in another app. This would be really useful to me because I edit CSS in another app & currently have been using the Finder to open the files. If I could do that from within Sublime it would be brilliant.

Add a history of editions spots

-2724 hace 14 años actualizado por Dean Herbert hace 14 años 4
Everytime you click somewhere, your history save the file and the line. then you can go backward and forward, just like in a Web browser.

It's very handy since you do a lot of back and forth while editing code, and you don't have to 'remember' to set a bookmark.

it's hard to do since you have to decide what to do in cases such as file and lines deletion.

Faster Startup / Close = Hide

Kevin Kleinfelter hace 13 años actualizado por Halil Özgür hace 13 años 4
I'd like to see an option which would put SublimeText 2 into a hidden but ready to launch mode when closing it (on Windows).  It takes several seconds to start, so it would be nice if 'closing' the app could hide it (perhaps to the tray) to speed startup.

Document history tree feature like in E-TextEditor with Visual history navigation.

Patrick Thurmond hace 13 años actualizado por Eric West hace 13 años 4
I would like to see a document history tree feature like the one used in E-TextEditor. It allows for an undo history with a visual tree you can navigate through including branches. Add this with a diff feature to compare them and that would rock.

If you look at the link I include below you will see that it has a visual panel that comes up and lets you click on the different changes and branches and see what you had where. This allows the user to easily pluck deleted code from the history and add it back in without all that undoing and saving a bunch of other snippets into open blank document windows that you might have to do now.

Also, being able to use a diff tool on this would be even better so that you can see the differences between two different points in history or between the current version and a different point in history.

Allow "Open Files" to be docked to top of sidebar

Bill Dami hace 13 años actualizado por Don Myers hace 12 años 5
I think the sidebar's active/open files list feature would be alot more useful (especially in projects with a big file tree) if there was an option to dock it to the top of sidebar, so it always remains visible instead of scrolling with the rest of the file tree. Optimally it would just resize vertically as files are added/removed from it (maybe have a max height setting too where after a certain point it will scroll itself.)


This would make it a more complete replacement for the tab bar, which I would prefer to hide, as vertical screen space is at a premium compared to horizontal space with widescreen monitors. And I'm the type of person that likes to see as many lines of code on screen as possible.


For a good example of this type of functionality, take a look at Espresso 2's UI (http://macrabbit.com/espresso/). Or even Chocolat (http://chocolatapp.com/).

Clickable urls

wes hardee hace 13 años actualizado por Richard Kubina hace 11 años 1
How about having openable urls in documents? Many text editors have this feature; Evernote automatically turns typed links into clickable hyperlinks that open in the browser, and Textmate links are underlined and activated by a shortcut (numpad Enter).

Preview .tm Themes

Sandeep Surya hace 14 años 0
I had to click on preferences->color scheme->theme and the menu closes as soon as we select a theme.
A preview, while moving my mouse , or up-down keys on the menu items would be very helpful for those who would like to play  around with themes like me..
