Some other things I do with sublime that might be quirky:
- My font size is 22 or 24 points. Not because I'm blind, but because it forces me to not type lines too long, or files too big. It keeps my code concise and to the point. Also the font I use (Menlo) is lovely and I just like looking at it sometimes.
- My lines wrap at 76 characters. Basta.
- I'll have multiple windows of sublime open for weeks, months sometimes. Half the time I don't even know what windows or buffers I have open. I just did a "clean up" and closed about 10 of them. It was like a trip down memory lane of the last year. Most of these windows had buffers I had never saved – not even once.
- Aside from a bats syntax plugin, and the material theme, I have no plugins. Unless you count the package installer I guess.
- Sublime is my editor for git commit messages. I love it.
- Most of the time when I need to write something long form, a long email, an article, anything really, I'll do it in sublime first and then copy into a word processor for layout and other things. If I need to update things, the sublime version is the source of truth, and I'll just copy/paste into Pages or whatever I'm using at the time for layout/design.
- Not gonna lie, sometimes I think about writing a plugin for sublime to use it as my email client. I think it'd be wonderful.
- Sometimes I just open up a new sublime window and start typing random stuff; a short story, some thoughts, or just random words. It's like therapy in a way. I never save these buffers, or at least very rarely.
Sublime is the single most valuable piece of software I own, and I'm very glad to have paid the price of admission.
