In Microsoft Windows, opening a directory from the command line should use the existing window instead of a creating a new window

DanM 13 years ago updated by Jon Skinner 13 years ago 0

The docs state "All files passed on the command line will be opened. If Sublime Text is already running, then the files will be opened by the existing instance, rather than a new one being started."


This does not happen with Sublime 2 on Windows.  It opens a new window with a project containing only the new directory.


If sublime is not running, it opens and adds the directory to the existing project.  This is the preferred behavior and should happen even if sublime (subl) is already running.


Ideally there should be a command line utility like there is on osx that allows for control of this.

You can use the -a command line flag for this. The windows version has the functionality of the OSX command line tool built in, with the except of no support for --wait
