Configuration

For linux and mac users there is a script to auto configure your sublime at Sublime Drupal.

Go to "Preferences" => "Settings - User" and change the following settings:

{
  "rulers": [80],
  "tab_size": 2,
  "translate_tabs_to_spaces": true,
  "use_tab_stops": true,
  "trim_automatic_white_space": true,
  "trim_trailing_white_space_on_save": true,
  "ensure_newline_at_eof_on_save": true,
  "fallback_encoding": "UTF-8",
  "default_line_ending": "unix",
  "shift_tab_unindent": true,
  "word_separators": "./\\()\\'-:,.;<>~!@#%^&*|+=[]{}`~?"
}

Enabling whitespace characters

Optionally, you could also add a setting to view whitespace characters to the end of the code settings (found above):

"draw_white_space": "all"
