Here’s a great index of Sublime Text packages on GitHub and in Package Control. It includes current package compatibility with the forth coming Sublime Text 3.

Zissou is a very nice color scheme for Sublime Text and Text Mate. By way of @SublimePacakages

Ever lose an hour or more trying to figure out why your scripts fail, only to figure out you opened the document once on a Windows editor that automatically changed line endings? Yeah, me neither. LineEndings is pretty nice. Allows to: Show the current “line ending” on status bar. Change line endings from the command palette. Change line endings from the “tab size” menu of the statusbar. Display an alert when the line_ending is not some you expect.

Our hero Will Bond is looking out for us Sublime Text users. He is maintaining a list of ST3 compatible plugins. By way of @SublimePackages

ScopeHunter is a handy add-on for Sublime Text. It shows the exact scope under the current cursor. This is great if you’re developing a SublimeText language module and theme and can’t figure out why syntax highlighting isn’t working. So many wasted hours.

Tuts+ has a nice video walk through of some of the new ST3 features. There are some very cool IDE-like features on display. The upgrade pricing has also been announced: $30.

Sublime Text 3 beta is now available for registered users. It sounds like a performance tuning update and also looks very similar to the last nightly build of ST2 from back in September. Performance is always a great feature enhancement. Note: Looks like ST3 will be a paid upgrade.

Smart Snippets is a Sublime Text plugin to enable code execution as part of a snippet. It’s still in early and not very active development but looks promising.

SublimeQuickFind Available in Package Control SublimeQuickFind makes search in Sublime Text a little more convenient and flexible. Select a word and hit Ctrl+S to jump to the next occurrence. Repeat as necessary. I set my command to Ctrl+Shift+S. There are a couple options for this plugin. The “extend” option extends the selection to the next occurence. Some additional extras: wrap: True case_insensitive: True use_regex: False look_backwards: False extend: False Expand Selection to Quotes Available in Package Control

QuickRef is a plugin that brings keyboard hints to Sublime Text. It must be manually configured but that effort comes with some benefits. For example, the list is limited to just the commands I want to learn. Second, the description is up to me. Finally, the hint can also execute the command.
