This command will help you if you are working on a multimonitor setup with different resolutions.
Sadly, ST doesn't support setting different font sizes for different windows, so this is a nice trick to overcome that limitation.

Once you install this plugin, add these settings to your keybindings file so that you can zoom in and out on a per-view basis:
(Changes on the current view won't affect any other view or ST windows.)

      "args": {
          "by": -1,
