Skullsneeze / SidebarHoverToggle

A sublime text 3 plugin that opens and closes the sidebar, based on where your mouse is

SidebarHoverToggle

Opens the sidebar when hovering over your gutter, and closes it when hovering anywhere else

This plugin only works in Sublime text 3 (Build 3124 >), since it uses the native on_hover command.
