Setting for `tabs`, `sidebar` and `open files in sidebar`

#1

A little feature request

It’d be cool if we could have a these settings in an upcoming version:

  • show_tabs- defaults to true. if set to false, no tabs are being shown.
  • show_sidebar - defaults to true. if set to false, no sidebar is being shown
  • open files_in_sidebar - defaults to false. If set to true, it will toggle the open files in sidebar behaviour

Adding these would also allow toggling through toggle_setting or set_setting. Right now there is no distinct way to hide the sidebar. All we can do is toggle it.
Toggling it through the menu could also reflect that status in the Preferences files

Another way, which plugins could work around with, is adding set/hide_xxx actions instead of the toggles. Plugins could read the settings file and execute these based on what is being set.

You can hide your tabs by going to View > Hide Tabs
Showing the sidebar can be toggled with ctrl + (k, b) (while holding control, hit k and then b)
Showing the open files is a view option: Instructions can be found here http://stackoverflow.com/a/12869197/1883547
