Sublime keyboard shortcat list

This is work in progress...

• Below is a list of most common keyboard shortcats I use in Sublime (this is a work in progress post)

Ctrl-Shift-Space - select whole string in brackets
Ctrl-B - show/hide results panel
Ctrl-D - highlight a word
Alt-F3 - multi selection for all highlighted words
F4 - (in the search results Ctrl+Shift+F) opens a file and takes you to highlighted line
Ctrl-F2 - marks a point in a line and create a point for multi selection if needed
Alt-F2 - edit all the marked lines at once (create a multi selection from all the marks above)
Alt-F2, Ctrl-F2 - removes all the marks in the file
Ctrl+Alt+Enter - In the Find/Replace window at the bottom it 'Replace All' matches

• Even more shortcats http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10615
• The Menu -> Edit -> Permute Lines menu options provide a few more ways to sort, including Reverse, which sorts in reverse alpha order, starting with lowercase letters, Unique, which removes duplicated lines, and Shuffle, which sorta kinda randomizes the text.

• How to enable API debug in Sublime and see all commands name in console (http://robdodson.me/blog/2012/06/23/sublime-text-2-tips-and-shortcuts/)

Sublime has a built in console terminal with ctrl+` . When type sublime.log_commands(True) there you enable verbose logging. When enabled you are going to see all commands that Sublime is executes as you use it. Just remember to turn logging off when you’re done :)

Text developer editor with Python API

I often need to work between Linux and Windows systems. Under every OS I have my favorite tools I like that help me to get the job done. But there has always been one tool that I wasn't very happy with: a good text editor.

Problem

What is a good cross platform editor with development features that is written and integrated with Python.

Analisis and discussion 

When I code I always like to know the editor so I can quickly and comfortably navigate in a single or multiple files at the same time. I've found recently one that I tend to use more: Sublime. The other one I was using for a long while was Notepad++ but it was only limited to Windows.

Why Sublime works for me:

• You can use it in Linux and Windows
• It has an extensive number of plugins and a packet manager Package Control
• It has a Python API that you can use for plugin development
• Many opensource plugins are available at github alrady (example https://github.com/facelessuser/BracketHighlighter)
• Examples Python API tutorial
• Inside view what is happening under the hood and easy debugging with Control+~ Python console

My simple config

You can view and change all global settings under Menu - Preferences - Settings - Default but a better way is to create a local customized user preferences file.

To modify user settings open the following file under Menu - Preferences - Settings - User and copy or modify these options:

 
"fade_fold_buttons"        : false,
"highlight_line"           : true,
"auto_complete_size_limit" : 44194304,
"tree_animation_enabled"   : true,

My packages

Below are some of my packages I'm using

• https://github.com/SublimeText/Tag
• http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control
• https://github.com/facelessuser/BracketHighlighter
• https://github.com/titoBouzout/SideBarEnhancements
