preference.Sublime-settings

[rachel]

when i try to customize settings i get this error message:
Error trying to parse settings in Packages/User/Preferences.sublime-settings:7:1

I tried re-downloading sublime.

does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it

Thanks
Rachel

You have a syntax error in that file. Have a look at line 7 column 1 in that file and correct it.

Reinstalling won’t fix it because those folders are unaffected by re-installs.

If you can’t work out what’s wrong with the syntax, post it here and someone will help you with it.

yes it was a syntax issue which i corrected… thanks so much.
one more question:
I just installed sublime and it already had this in the user setting:

{
“ignored_packages”:
[
“Vintage”
]
}

I looked it up on line and it seems to be overriding some bug in sublime 3.Is that correct?

It’s not masking a bug, no; The Vintage package makes Sublime act like the vi editor, which is very disconcerting for people that aren’t familiar with how it works.

So as a result, that package is disabled by default to avoid confusion with new users.
