Most “Goto X” actions in Sublime both show a file and create an actual tab for it, which usually is what you want.If you decide this is an important file, you can double-click on the file name to create an actual tab for it, which makes the file easy to return to. If you just click on a file, it is shown in the editor but no tab is created by default. Sublime keeps files of current interest available as tabs in the main window.View a file without “opening” it (as a persistent tab).Edit: This is actually available in BBEdit under the “Live Search” command, but this is not part of the default Find experience and not advertised.This saves a surprising amount of time compared to BBEdit where you have to finish providing a full substring (that you think is long enough) before kicking off the search.Frequently you don’t have to finish typing the substring in order to get the result you want. As you start typing the substring you want to find, it automatically starts searching within the current document.My initial impression was “BBEdit can do everything that Sublime can, what’s the deal?” But after using Sublime full-time for about a week, I’m starting to come around to it.Īlthough it is true that both have comparable feature sets, Sublime’s implementation feels more polished - not just eyecandy, but actually better usability. However the use of Sublime Text has been spreading throughout my workplace at Splunk 1 so I decided I’d give it a try.
It is an extremely capable and mature editor with just about all the bells and whistles you can imagine.
I’ve been using BBEdit as my primary text editor on the Mac for over 10 years.
