Problem editing .sublime-package files

[anand3]

I’m trying to edit some keybinds for vintage mode and from what i understand i have to go through the vintage.sublime-package file, which shows this

Im on windows 7 64bit. I tried doing a fresh install of ST3 but same issue. it does this for other package files also. when i was on ST2, there was no problem. how do i fix this?

Sublime package files are zip files; if you want to edit them you need to unzip them first.

You can use PackageResourceViewer to do that, or use it to override only the files that you want to change.

That said, when it comes to key bindings you should just apply the bindings in your own User package; that package is always loaded last and will override the defaults in the Vintage package. You can use PackageResourceViewer to get at the original binds, though.
