Yeah, this would be a really useful feature. There is a request here for something similar. A few comments down that page “leeoniya” suggests Dev-PHP as having a great implementation of this feature. I’ve just tried it and, yeah, that’s pretty much as I’d personally like it.

@ indecline: There’s a highlight words plugin here: https://forum.sublimetext.com/t/highlight-current-word-plugin-with-st2/1700/2&hilit=highlightcurrentword#p9741

Cheers,

You can still use threads in a sublime plugin. You just can’t interact with the view from the thread. The easiest way is to use a global variable to store the data of the view. The plugin copies the view into that variable, and the thread periodically reads that string, does stuff with it and updates another global.

So, you can definitely do background processing stuff, you just have to incur the cost of making a copy of the view each time.

To be honest I’ve never really found highlighting to be all that necessary as long as you had commands that could select or move to either end of nodes. You generally look so you can select or navigate …

That’s true. Is there any way of doing this in ST2 at present?

Update: actually, the main reason I find highlighting useful is to more easily grok the content of tags at a glance. Zen’s select tag content command was very useful for that. Is Zen Coding possible in ST2 yet?

You could always solve the problem by upgrading to haml

So has there been any development here? I’d kill for the plugin seen in sublimator’s animated gif on page 1.
