Hi,
from reading the docs and the forum, I know how to use subl (on Mac) to open files and jump to line numbers.
If a file is already open in ST, how can I activate (and not open an additional tab/window) the open file and jump to then given line number?
Use case is debugging python code, where I could jump to the given line number of the (already) open file where the error occurred.
You can just use the Goto Line feature of ST. From the main menu, go to Goto -> Goto Line ... and just type the line number.
Sure, I know how to do that.
I’d like to skip / automate this by just having to click on the error message. So this would need to be a feature of subl or calling ST directly…
(The creating and handling of the hyperlink is covered, I need to know how to call subl to not open another window/tab)
Build systems allow you to specify a regex for file/line/column allowing you to double click on those to go there. subl will also generally reuse open files unless you’ve changed settings like "open_files_in_new_window".
I’m not using build systems (in this case), because I need to use the interactive python console for debugging, which didn’t work “inside” ST.
In the settings, “open_files_in_new_window” is set to false; this seems to work sometimes, and sometimes not. Guess I need to take a closer look at symlinks in the path…
Thanks so far!
