This is an efficient way to ensure that no other people are able to access the web server, without building a login system which will be significantly weaker.
I will not explain how to create a certificate authority (CA), create certificates or sign them. If you need to read up on this, have a look at this excelent article on how to do it with OpenSSL (Mac and Linux): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL#Practical_OpenSSL_Usage
It is also possible to do this on a Mac with the keychain application, and I assume it is possible on a Windows machine aswell.

    Launch Sublime Text 2 from the Mac OS X Terminal

Sublime Text 2 ships with a CLI called subl (why not "sublime", go figure). This utility is hidden in the following folder (assuming you installed Sublime in /Applications like normal folk. If this following line opens Sublime Text for you, then bingo, you're ready.
open /Applications/Sublime\ Text\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl
