I’m using Sublime Text 2 (version 2.0.2 build 2221) as a remote editor for an SFTP client and it only partially works. The client can see when a file is saved in ST and so that works fine. But the SFTP client has no idea when a file is closed in ST, which messes up its support for reopening only if needed. Any hope of a fix in ST2 or ST3?
ODB support incomplete in 2.0.2 build 2221

Have you tried the latest version of ST3? Jon is pretty much focusing exclusively on that now, so if you have issues with ST2 try upgrading and see if that does the trick. The latest public beta version is here, and if you’re a registered user (which I really hope you are 
) you should be running the latest dev build.
If upgrading to ST3 still doesn’t do the trick, please look through the issues at github.com/SublimeText/Issues/issues and open a new one if none of the existing ones match your problem. Alternatively, I don’t know if it will fit into your workflow, but you might want to check out wbond’s SFTP plugin, which works on both 2 and 3. You basically make the SFTP connection through Sublime, and can browse the filesystem that way. The plugin is like Sublime itself, it’ll work without a registration key, but you’ll get a reminder every now and then to register. If you use it a lot, then registration is required (and is the nice thing to do).

Yes. ST3 3059 (the most recent stable beta, or whatever it’s called) shows the same problem.
Thanks for the issues pointer. I though this was the right place to report issues (and in fact I just posted a new version of this for ST3 in this forum – oops). I’ll post there.
Thanks for the suggestion of an SFTP client. I’m very happy with Yummy FTP, but if I get desperate I’ll give it a try.
