Install Sublime Text into Linux CrunchBang 11 [Waldorf] and your Main Development Packages
# First, download the latest version from: http://www.sublimetext.com/2
# In my case choice: Linux 64 bits [[http://c758482.r82.cf2.rackcdn.com/Sublime%20Text%202.0.2%20x64.tar.bz2]]
cd ~/downloads
# unzip: Sublime Text 2.0.2 x64.tar.bz2
tar -zxvf Sublime\ Text\ 2.0.2\ x64.tar.bz2
# move the folder
sudo mv Sublime\ Text\ 2 /opt/
# we’ll create a symbolic link in “/usr/bin”:
sudo ln -s /opt/Sublime\ Text\ 2/sublime_text /usr/bin/sublime
# Now that our files are at the right place, we need to create a launcher in Unity.
# To do this, we’re going to create a .desktop file in “/usr/share/applications”:
sudo sublime /usr/share/applications/sublime.desktop
# add the next code:
[Desktop Entry]
Version=2.0.2
Name=Sublime Text 2
GenericName=Text Editor
Exec=sublime
Terminal=false
Icon=/opt/Sublime Text 2/Icon/48x48/sublime_text.png
Type=Application
Categories=TextEditor;IDE;Development
X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts=NewWindow
[NewWindow Shortcut Group]
Name=New Window
Exec=sublime -n
TargetEnvironment=Unity
# Now, writing in the terminal "sublime" can run
# With this, we have completed the installation of ST2
sublime
# Install the Main Development Packages
# Now, we move to: https://sublime.wbond.net/ for install the Sublime Text package manager
# At this point i, prefer the manual installation: https://sublime.wbond.net/installation#Manual
# Download Package Control.sublime-package and copy it into the Installed Packages/ directory
cd ~/downloads
sudo mv Package\ Control.sublime-package ~/.config/sublime-text-2/Installed\ Packages/
# Restart Sublime, open sublime
sublime
# control + shift + p and write:
install package
# Press enter key and find a list of sublime packages
# Which you can install only selecting the package and press enter key
# the list of sublime package is: https://sublime.wbond.net/browse
# I recommend installing the following packages:
jade
stylus
coffeeScript
# Sublime builds
