How to run Sublime Text from the command line on OSX

# this is a comment
# 
# "mkdir ~/bin" makes a "bin" folder in your home folder. this is a good place to put your own programs
# "rm ~/bin/subl" removes any "subl" command that you might already have
# 'ln -s "/Appli...."' links "subl" to the app in your Applications folder
# cut and paste these commands into your terminal shell:

mkdir ~/bin
rm ~/bin/subl
ln -s "/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl" ~/bin/subl

# if your PATH is set up correctly, you should be able to type "subl" into the terminal shell and it should bring up Sublime Text.
# If it doesn't work, you need to set up your path. That's a subject for a different gist.
