For example:-
In  makefile.sublime-build I could do the following set up
"cmd": ["make","${settings:buildtype}"],
"file_regex": "^(..[^:]*):([0-9]+):?([0-9]+)?:? (.*)$",
"working_dir": "${project_path:${folder:${file_path}}}",
"selector": "source.makefile", 
So as a user I could define a user setting "buildtype:"release" which I could change to "buildtype:"debug" to quickly change between build types, this would also allow me to easily create new ones, like "master", by simple editing my my build system (which is different to make) and changing the user settings, without having to create variants or edit the .sublime-build file etc.  Would be most useful for such things as multi-platform builds, as I could also define multiple user settings, for example settings for a  buildtype and buildplatform in so doing create multiple platform builds with "cmd": ["make","${settings:buildtype}_${settings:buildplatform}"]. I think this would be a simple but powerful addition to the sublime-build implementation.

Currently if I have a large code. I'm separating it by comments and indentations to fold them later.

For example:

// Views

... some views code here ...

// Models

... some models here

But when the code gets really big, indentation becomes so large, that it's starting to annoy.

Would be better if there would be some codes for folding, to avoid indentation at some point of hierarchy.

For example:

// Views fold_start_1

... some views code here without indentation at all ...

// fold_end_1

Now you can fold all the code between fold_start_1 and fold_end_1.

Ofc folding codes could be shorter, it's just as an example

How can I catch key presses and deny them before they get into the view without setting up key bindings? I want to catch all user input and then decide what to write into the view.

in some situations, with a low number of files in the filtered list (2 or 3) it's hard to tell apart the item that is currently selected from the other ones listed. Could we add a bit more of highlight love to that selection? Maybe a thin border around the row or something like that?

For instance, in the following image can you easily tell which item is selected?

For project settings it would be nice to be able to define "files" as well as "folders".  Sometime there are files that might exist outside of a directory.  Rather than including an entire folder only to exclude all but one or two files it would be nice to be able to just include specific files.  This could take many of the same parameters as the folders, name, path, etc.  Of course the exclude patterns wouldn't make sense to include.

Example:

{
    "files":
        [
            {
                "path": "/path/to/my/file.txt"
            },
            {
                "path": "/path/to/my/other/file.txt"
            }
        ]
}

PS. Great work.  This is an awesome project.  I am hoping I can get our whole development team using it.

I'm a writer not a coder but Scrivener on Linux (still in beta) is not yet able to handle the number of files and the sizes that I'm working with.  Sublime Text can, though it lacks a few of the basic features that would make it just as useful.  I'm not talking about the text formatting, which really gets in the way anyway and can be done in a word processor/LaTex later.  But being able to compile and export files as EPUB / PDF / concatenated txt, also being able to arrange the different txt files into a tree structure and also being able to edit them in a continuous draft.  Sublime Text is great as it opens instantly, I can work with thousands of fragments at once, but there does not seem to be anyway of ordering these.  Also it is hard to find specific settings and resources, tutorials solely for the prose writer....make all this a bit easier, or even have another version without any of the coding tools, and you'll have a whole new market....
