Sublime Text 2 Settings

Martin over at The Amazing Web asked for Sublime Text 2 Settings yesterday, so here we go:

{
    "font_face": "Consolas",
    "font_size": 15.0,
    "word_wrap": "true",
    "highlight_line": true,
    "tab_size": 4,
    "translate_tabs_to_spaces": false,
    "line_padding_bottom": 1
}

I’m a huge fan of Microsoft’s Consolas font, so this is my default in both Sublime Text 2 and iTerm 2. The font size looks a little bit to large, but Consolas in 15pt is similar to Monaco in 13pt.
As Martin I hate scrolling horizontally and like my lines highlighted, however, I prefer tabs over spaces when it comes to indentation. The line padding is taken from Martin, it makes things way mare readable.

There are no color scheme settings in my config. As most Sublime Text 2 users I was a long-time Textmate user before and loved their Twilight theme (also on a dark background). However, I instantly fell in love with Sublime’s default Monokai theme and I’m still happy with it.

And I’m pretty happy I finally had the chance to play with Lea Verou’s great prism.js for this post.

I'm a Web Developer based in Mainz/Germany, working for WIBROS as Lead Developer. I love the Internet, Baseball, Softball, beer and the color orange. I used to drink too much coffee.
