The idea is to use something similar to "Go to anything" where you only type some letters that are contained in the symbol you want to go to, and you automatically go to symbols containing those letters in that order, but limiting the search to symbols inside the document (since most languages, if not all, support the same pattern for symbols, and you don't want to search text or anything like that, just references to functions or variables).

Imagine you have a document like this:

void function () {

   doSomething (whatever, "this is a string");

   if (runUltraComplexCheck (var1, var2)) {

      simple_variable = 1;

      doSomethingElse ();

   }

}

Now, the idea is that if you are at the beginning of the document and you run "incremental symbol find" and you press "f" the first word "function" would be selected. If I type "d" then the first "doSomething" would be selected, and so if I run find next, then the "doSomethingElse" symbol would be selected. It should behave as a normal search so find previous and find next would work.

On the other hand, imagine I want to go to "doSomethingElse", then I go to incremental symbol search and type "dse" then automatically doSomethingElse would be selected. In the same scenario, typing "ru" or "rucc" or "run" or "rcheck" would all select "runUltraComplexCheck", which is the only word in that document matching that pattern.

Again, if you type "sv" in incremental symbol search, you would go to "simple_variable".

I think this kind of feature would be as awesome as "Go to Anything", and no other editor has something like this... I guess it can be written using a plugin, but anyway, native would be great.

To sum up the features:

• incremental symbol find inside current doc
• a symbol is defined as [_a-zA-Z][_a-zA-Z0-9]+
• discard searching inside comments
• discard searching inside text strings
• be able to use find next / find previous
  

I should always be able to glance at the tab strip and identify which files are modified and which ones are not.  Because of this issue, sometimes it's impossible to tell, which is frustrating.

Even changing to an unknown-status tab doesn't help, because the obscured name doesn't appear.  Mouseover of the tab shows the file location, still no help.  The only way to tell (in Mac OS) is because the icon at the top of the window title bar becomes slightly grey for modified files (I believe this is a systemwide visual effect). There should be a simpler way to know at-a-glance what's modified and what isn't.

I'd like to be able to use Sublime Text like my chrome developer tools. You would be able to watch local files and when it is opened in the browser, the css would change it live. Also as you hover over elements in the html on Sublime Text, it would highlight them as if you were hovering over them in the chrome dev tools.

This has already been done in Brackets (an Adobe project), and kind of in an app called CodeKit. It would be great if it were done in a much better editor like Sublime Text.

Support Haskell unicode syntax highlighting (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.4.2/html/users_guide/syntax-extns.html ).

I've uploaded the patch here: https://gist.github.com/3744568

I love the:

1. Find

2. Hit alt-f3

3. hit escape

and then edit all occurrences feature of Sublimetext. However, if I selected a region of text and do this and restrict the search to that region of text then stage 1 above is fine but hitting alt-f3 then finds ALL occurrences in the file, not just the selected region. I propose that Alt-f3 (quick find all) should observe the "in selection" option and only find those items in that selected region.

I have a file open in ST2. I have no other programs running on the machine, which I just rebooted. I edit the file and hit Ctrl-S, I get the error 'can't save file'. Opening a random other file gets the same error on save. Editing the same files in any other program (notepad, Visual Studio) works fine as expected. Process Explorer tells me that this file is not open in any other program. I also found that a number of other people have run into this same dialog: http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9240 with no known explanation. 

I installed ST2 a few weeks ago and it worked up until a few days ago, and has not saved any files since then. I have rebooted the machine and closed every other program there is. The machine is running Windows Server 2012.

The following additions to the Java.tmLanguage file would be very wonderful. 

Add to `repository -> parameters -> patterns`:

<dict>

  <key>include</key>

  <string>#annotations</string>

</dict>

Add to `repository -> parameters -> enums -> patterns`:

<dict>

  <key>include</key>

  <string>#comments</string>

</dict>

Metadata keys are case insensitive and stripped of all spaces during processing. This means that Base Header Level, base headerlevel, and baseheaderlevel are all the same.

However, in MultiMarkdown.tmLanguage, the check for "Format: complete" on the first line is case sensitive:

<key>firstLineMatch</key>

<string>^Format:\s*(?i:complete)\s*$</string>

Changing it to the following fixes the problem:

<key>firstLineMatch</key>

<string>^(?i:Format):\s*(?i:complete)\s*$</string>

I was looking to use sublime text 2 in order to help me sort through some c code.  This one file messes up the sublime c syntax coloring. Proj4 is a fairly popular projection library used for mapping and GIS. I think sublime is ready to rock some preprocessor statements and is confused by the crazy pound defines in this code.  I hate looking at code from this library and would much rather look at sublimes gorgeous colors, but for now I'm stuck with Proj4:

Here's a screenshot:

I did not realize until just now that you could use the arrow keys in the Find in Files dialog's "where" field.  This is great, but not obvious at all.
