How did you do that where you add the new file with 'subl gulpfile.js'?

Courses Plus Student 21,474 PointsIf you followed the instructions here: https://gist.github.com/olivierlacan/1195304 then the command installed is sublime and not subl. So try running sublime . and it should open Sublime Text in the current directory.

touch gulpfile.js

Take a look here for the answer: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/create-sublime-files-from-terminal-how-did-you-do-it
The subl command should be available out of the box with Sublime Text. Just go to the folder you want to create the file in Terminal, and run:
subl newfile.js
This will open Sublime Text with a new buffer under the name newfile.js. It won't actually save the file until you save in Sublime Text (⌘ + S or File -> Save).
