Sublime Text 2 Usage Tips

First, preface

As a front-end, there is a good development tool is essential, editplus, notepad++ are good tools, lightweight, fast startup (DW is too puffy). Recently, there is a new editor was born, swept the front end of the world, provoked countless love, many front-end ER has abandoned the use of several years of "partner", put her arms--sublime Text2. Sublime Text2 is a cross-platform editor that no longer has to find a suitable, familiar editor for changing platforms. Currently, or beta version, but the function is very strong, update is also very fast, the latest is bulid2181. ST2 is not free, but can be used for free forever, but in the time of saving, occasionally pop up to buy the registration dialog box, that's all. Official address: HTTP://WWW.SUBLIMETEXT.COM/2.

Second, the function

Sublime Text2 is a code highlighting, syntax hints, auto-complete and fast response editor software, not only has a gorgeous interface, but also support plug-in extension mechanism, with her to write code, is absolutely a pleasure.

Interface

First look at the ST2 interface:

L from top to bottom: Title bar ↓ Menu bar ↓tab control bar ↓ Edit Area ↓ status bar;

L from Do Right: Sidebar (can be closed) → Edit area →minimap

Menu bar

Various commands, various settings.

tab bar

Many editors have, if the file editing has not been saved, the upper right corner has a small dot hint to save, if not saved off also do not fear, ST2 is very intimate, will help us automatically save.

Edit Area

This is our main work area, ST2 support Code Auto indent, code folding function.

Describes a few common features:

L Auto-Complete: auto-complete shortcut key is tab, if in the HTML file, input CL press TAB, you can automatically fill the class= "", plus zencoding, even more powerful, after the

L humanized Design: Although the ST2 is still a beta version, but there are many design details are commendable, such as clicking on a label or brackets, will be displayed at the beginning of the line, easy to see the code results, each layer of nested code between the vertical lines, play the role of visual aids.

Third, set

Sublime Text2 after bulid2181, the "settings" were merged, and now there are only two options, namely system settings and shortcut key settings.

In general, we modify the settings, it is best to copy them in the user changes, so as not to upgrade the default is overwritten.

L Settings: In this file, you can modify a lot of things, such as themes, fonts, font size, whether to display line numbers, automatic indentation, automatic completion. Many of them are selected by default, and I have modified two additional places:

If there are any shortcomings, ST2 currently on the ANSI, GBK Chinese character display is not normal, (using UTF8 encoding is no problem, the package control has a GBK plug-in), I hope ST2 will be able to support the perfect Chinese.
