VS Code Keymap extension for Sublime Text

VS Code keymaps for Sublime Text

This repo lists some of the more popular VS Code keymaps that you may wish to use in Sublime Text 3.

There are a lot of Sublime-to-VSCode keymap packages out there, but there don't seem to be any going the other way. I use VS Code most of the time, but I also use the Zettelklasten method for note-taking, and this Sublime Text extension has been the best tool that I've found that it. I prefer VS Code as a text editor, so I want to stay familiar with their main key bindings while being able to use this Zettelklasten Sublime plugin.

I've picked and chosen the key bindings which I use the most, so if you have any other key bindings you'd like to recommend, please raise an issue.

Installation

Key bindings

1. Copy the key bindings from the *.sublime-keymap file that suits your operating system.
2. Open Preferences > Key Bindings.
3. Paste the key bindings into Default (*).sublime-keymap - User

Settings

This is just to turn on the shift_tab_unindent setting, which is set to false by default on Sublime Text.

1. Copy the setting from Preferences.sublime-settings.
2. Open Preferences > Settings.
3. Paste the setting into Preferences.sublime-settings - User

I would also recommend installing MoveTab and GotoTab packages for Chrome-like behaviour. You can do this via Package Control (ctrl+shift+p > Package Control: Install Package and search MoveTab and GotoTab).

Usage

Only the key bindings for Windows have been tested. Please raise an issue or submit a pull request if any of these aren't working on Linux or OSX.
