Sublime Text 2 Tips and Plugins

Hello!

I'm just throwing this out to the TH community. I'm keen to know as a newbie to Sublime Text 2 what some of the best plugins and shortcuts there are that I should look at and be using.

Appreciate any help given!

I came across this presentation some time ago on sublime text. Hopefully you find it useful as well.

One note, I'm on Windows using ST 2 and quite a few of the hotkeys mentioned in the presentation didn't quite work for me so I had to look them up. I created a little cheatsheet for myself that I posted above my monitor. I never use it.

Hi Darren,

If you are studying Ruby on Rails, Michael Hartl has a nice github page for using Sublime Text 2 with Rails here.

I use ST3, and I enjoy "emmet coding" alot! (should be available in ST2 as well). I have a plugin called "autosave", too, and I use keyboard shortcuts alot, like going from editor (ST3) too browser, and vice versa, so instead of of pressing ctrl+s for saving/oplading then rearrange your fingers to Alt+Tab to go to the browser, I just need too press Alt+Tab, because of autosave.
