Sublime SelectionTools

Some helpful commands for Sublime Text 2.

Commands

  • Multi Quick Find All

    • Given some initially selected strings, selects all occurrances of any of those strings.
    • Like Sublime's built-in “Quick Find All” command, but works with multiple initial selections.

  • Reverse Selection Direction

    • Toggles the cursor being at the front or the back of the selection.

  • Align Indentation

    • Given a multi-line selection, all lines except the first will be reindented to the character column of the beginning of the selection.
    • You can quickly indent a block to an exact column.
    • Handy when used together with the command “Expand Selection to Brackets”.
    • See screenshot

  • Shorten Selection

    • Shortens the selection by one character both at the front and the back.
    • This can be useful when expanding the selection to quotes or brackets. Sometimes you don't want to select the quotes, or the lines containing the brackets.

To install

If you have the PackageControl plugin installed, you can use that to install SelectionTools.

Then type SelectionTools and choose the SelectionTools plugin from the dropdown. Hit enter and it will install.
