3. WHAT IS SUBLIMETEXT?
• SublimeText is a sophisticated text editor for code,
markup and prose. You'll love the slick user interface,
extraordinary features and amazing performance.
• SublimeText is a cross-platform text and source code
editor, with a Python application programming
interface (API).
• SublimeText is written in C++ & Python.

4. LANGUAGE SUPPORT
• SublimeText is able to highlight syntax for a number of different
programming languages including ActionScript,AppleScript,ASP,
batch files, C, C++, C#, Clojure, CSS, D, Diff, Erlang, Go, Graphviz
(DOT), Groovy, Haskell, HTML, Java, JSP, JavaScript, JSON, LaTeX,
Lisp, Lua, Makefiles, Markdown, MATLAB, Objective-C, OCaml,
Perl, PHP, Python, R, Rails, Regular Expressions, reStructuredText,
Ruby, Scala, shell scripts (Bash), SQL,Tcl,Textile, XML, XSL, and
YAML. In addition to those that are included with the initial
package, users can download add-ons to enable support for
other languages or syntaxes.

5. INTERFACE
Themes
• SublimeText contains 22 different visual themes, with the option to download additional ones.
Minimap
• The minimap feature shows a reduced overview of the entire file in the top-right corner of
the screen.The portion of the file visible in the main editor pane is highlighted and clicking or
dragging in this view scrolls the editor through the file.
Panels, groups and screen modes
• The program offers a number of screen modes including panels that can show up to four files
at once as well as full screen and distraction free modes which only show one file without any
of the additional menus around it.

6. FEATURES
Column selection and multi-select editing
• This feature allows users to select entire columns at once or place more than one cursor in text, which allows for
simultaneous editing.All cursors then behave as if each of them was the only one in the text. Commands like move by
character, move by line, text selection, move by words, move by subwords (CamelCase, hyphen or underscore delimited),
move to beginning/end of line etc., affect all cursors independently, allowing one to edit slightly complex repetitive structures
quickly without the need to use macros or regex.
Auto completion
• A common feature within text editors SublimeText will offer to complete entries as the user is typing depending on the
language being used. It also auto-completes variables created by the user.
Syntax highlight and high contrast display
• The dark background on SublimeText is intended to reduce eyestrain and increase the amount of contrast with the text.As
certain types of syntax are highlighted in different colours, these stand out better compared to the background than if it
were light.
Snippets
• This feature allows users to save blocks of frequently used code and assign keywords to them.The user can then type the
keyword and press tab to paste the block of code whenever they require it.

7. OTHER FEATURES
SublimeText has a number of features in addition to these including:
• Auto-save, which prevents users from losing their work
• Customizable key bindings, a navigational tool which allows users to assign hotkeys to their choice of
options in both the menus and the toolbar.
• Find as you type, used to search the document and begins to look for the text being entered as the user
types.
• Spell check function corrects as you type.
• Macros.
• Repeat the last action.
• A wide selection of editing commands, including indenting and unindenting, paragraph reformatting and line
joining.

8. PACKAGE MANAGER
• SublimeText can be equipped with a package manager called
Package Control that allows the user to find, install, upgrade and
remove packages, usually without restarting SublimeText.The
package manager keeps installed packages up-to-date with an
auto-upgrade feature and downloads packages from GitHub,
BitBucket and a custom JSON-encoded channel/repository
system. It also handles updating packages cloned from GitHub
and BitBucket via Git and Hg, as well as providing commands for
enabling and disabling packages.The package manager also
includes a command to bundle any package directory into
a .sublime-package file.

9. A selection of third-party packages available:
• SublimeCodeIntel — Features include Jump to Symbol Definition, Function
CallTool-Tips.
• Sublime Goto Documentation — Opens relevant documentation for the
highlighted function.
• Bracket Highlighter — Enhances the basic highlights SublimeText provides for

• Sublime dpaste — Sends selected text to the dpaste.com service.
• SublimeLinter — Code linting (validation) for JavaScript, Perl, PHP, Python,
