I am in the process of converting from EditPad Pro to Sublime Text 3 and I have a couple of questions.
1 - Is there any way to convert my existing EditPad Pro configuration into ST3?
2 - I need ST3 on several systems, is there a way to copy the configurations, including plugins, to another system?
Thanks
Joe
I don’t know about your first question, but it is possible to copy your configs to other machines.
Basically, all of your custom configuration is contained in a package named User. If you select “Preferences->Browse Packages” from the menu, you should get a finder/explorer window on the location where your packages are installed.
The contents of the User package is what you want to copy to other machines; that will copy your configuration information across.
If you use Package Control to install your plugins, then as long as you make sure to copy the “Package Control.sublime-settings” file (it’s in the User package with everything else), when you start sublime on that machine it will download and install all your plugins for you.
I keep this package in source control so I can check out a copy on new machines or use it to sync changes as I make them.
EditorConfig is the only cross-application setting sharing method that I know of.
Currently, EditPad is not listed as a supported editor.
You’ll likely have to find the corresponding key:value pairs for each of your settings @:
Menu > Preferences > Settings - Default
and override them @:
Menu > Preferences > Settings - User
