Printing and pretty-printing required

12 years ago • 0

Printing - and preferably even pretty-printing - is an absolute must for me. Such a pity an otherwise more or less perfect editor can't print. I find myself continuously needing to go to other programs in order to do something so basic. University require hardcopies of all source code, analyses, etc. to be archived.

I do not think an editor that cannot do something so elementary as printing warrants $59.

Backtick quoting selected text does not work like single quotes and double quotes

13 years ago • updated by 8 years ago • 4

Currently, if you select some text and type a quote or a double quote, ST2 will place the quote at both ends of the selected text. This is a nice feature.

If, however, you are editing text in Markdown there is often the need to use backticks around code elements. When you select text and type a backtick the text is completely replaced by a single backtick. It would be nice if ST2 could place a backtick at each end of the selection.

Reload buffers in inactive groups on external change

13 years ago • updated by 12 years ago • 1

Currently, if the file is open in ST2, and it is modified externally, the corresponding view get refreshed.

However, if the current layout has multiple groups (e.g. "Rows: 2"), the externally-modified file view in ST2 is not reloaded until it gains focus. Would it be possible to make all visible views auto-reload on external changes, not just the active one? It would be helpful for monitoring short log files, opened in a second layout group, while editing code in the first layout group.

Vintage Mode - Ctrl-C

13 years ago • updated by 3 years ago • 3

Please enable Ctrl-C in Vintage mode to both cancel the current command and (more importantly) exit insert mode. Vim supports Ctrl-C as an alternative to Esc for exiting insert mode, and seeing as how you do not need to remove your fingers from the home row, it is a much much quicker alternative. I was very impressed to see that you had implemented vim bindings and it's actually made me interested in using your product, but this would be a must-have for me to switch from vim/macvim as the muscle memory is too strongly ingrained.

Find / replace menu stays open

12 years ago • 0

Would be nice if users could keep the find / replace menu open instead of having it hide after each replace. This gets annoying if users must run a series of regex across a selection or a file.

Simple option to not "auto-hide" find/ replace would work.

A close button might be good in this mode.

Convenient selection without rounded corners and with whole lines

13 years ago • updated by 11 years ago • 2

Is it possible to avoid fancy rounded corners on selection and rollback to convenient behavior? Which also includes this: select whole line to the end of screen if CRLF is in selection.

light text cursor when using dark editor background.

14 years ago • updated by 13 years ago • 4

Can you make the cursor light when using a dark background theme? (OS X) I keep losing track of my cursor, especially when using a projector (while teaching).
