Unattended Installation

Hi,
How do I include the license key in the unattended installation?

What makes Sublime think that’s Licensed is a file named License.sublime_license in the Local folder of the Data directory. If you place that file in the appropriate location during the installation process, Sublime will start installed.

Note however that the license file is generally binary and tied to the machine that it was originally generated on, so it won’t work on any computer other than the one it was originally generated on. However, if you store your license key in plain text in a file by that name in the appropriate location, Sublime will use that instead (though in that case you need to be careful that the license file doesn’t leak publicly).

The content of a textual version of the license file should match what you’d manually paste into the license dialog.
