Sublime Text

Sublime Text supports a vast number of programming languages and provides syntax highlighting for C, C++, C#, CSS, D, Dylan, Erlang, HTML, Groovy, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, LaTeX, Lisp, Lua, Markdown, MATLAB, OCaml, Perl, PHP, Python, R, Ruby, SQL, TCL, and XML. In addition to the programming languages that are included by default, users on Mac have the ability to download and install plugins to add support for other languages as well.

Sublime Text for Mac can be equipped with a package manager that allows the user to find, install, update, and remove packages without needing to restart the application. The manager keeps all installed packages up to date by automatically downloading new versions from repositories. Furthermore, it provides convenient commands for activating and deactivating installed packages at any time.

Features:

Interface: The editor includes a variety of visual themes, with the option to download additional ones to customize the appearance. Users can see their entire code on the right side of the screen as a minimap, which can be clicked for quick navigation through the document. There are several screen modes available. One of them includes from 1 to 4 panels, allowing users to display up to four files simultaneously on screen. The distraction-free mode displays only a single file without any additional menus or toolbars surrounding it.

Column Selection and Multiple Editing: Users can select entire columns or place multiple cursors throughout the text, which makes instant editing possible. Each cursor behaves as if it were the only one in the document. Commands such as move by character, move by line, text selection, move by word or subword (CamelCase, hyphen-separated, or underscore-separated), move to the beginning or end of a line, and so on, affect all cursors independently and simultaneously, enabling users to edit complex structured text quickly without resorting to macros or regular expressions.

Autocomplete: When the user types code, Sublime Text, depending on the programming language being used, will suggest various options for completing the entry. The editor also automatically completes user-created variables, making coding on Mac faster and more efficient.

Syntax Highlighting and High Contrast: The dark background of Sublime Text Mac is designed to increase the contrast of the text being displayed. Key syntax elements are highlighted in different colors that blend better with the dark background than they would with a lighter one.

Build System Support: Sublime Text allows the user to build programs and run them directly without the need to switch to a command line or terminal. The user can also configure their own custom build system and enable automatic building of the program every time the code is saved.

Snippets: Saving fragments of frequently used code along with trigger keywords to quickly insert them into your projects when needed.

File Navigation: A navigation tool that allows users to move between files, as well as within them, using fuzzy search for quick and precise access to any part of the codebase.

Other Features: Additionally, an auto-save function is implemented, helping users avoid losing any of their work in progress. Customizable keyboard shortcuts and a navigation tool allow users to assign their own key combinations for menus and toolbars (only in the first version; in the second and third versions, the Command Palette is used instead). Incremental search functionality is available for searching within a document as you type. The syntax checking function works in a similar manner, verifying correctness right during input in real time. There is also the ability to automate tasks using macros and by repeating the most recent actions performed. Editing commands include indent editing, paragraph reformatting, and line joining. After you complete the sublime text download, all of these powerful features become readily accessible on your Mac system.
