I know how to edit the snippets myself, just can't seem to be able to find the default ones in the new version of Sublime Text.
EDIT: The snippet I am trying to find and consequently edit is the default for the Latex files, in particular the one that converts from:
sec
to
\section{section name} % (fold)
\label{sec:section_name}
Sublime Text 3 stores its packages in .sublime-package
zip files (the location varies by OS), so unlike ST2 you can't just go to the Packages
folder and see everything. However, there is an excellent plugin called PackageResourceViewer
(available via Package Control) that can, among other things, extract files or whole packages to the Packages
directory.
Once you've installed the plugin:
prv
to get the Package Resource Viewer:
optionsPackage Resource Viewer: Open Resource
LaTeX
section-..-(section).sublime-snippet
file.You should now be able to edit this file and save it, which will create a new file Packages/LaTeX/section-..-(section).sublime-snippet
that you can open directly via the file menu if you need to alter it again.
If you'd like to work on multiple files, or an entire package, use Package Resource Viewer: Extract Package
which will unzip everything into the Packages/PackageName
folder. Please keep in mind, though, that once packages or individual files are extracted into the Packages
folder, they overrule files of the same name located in the .sublime-package
archive. This is good for customization, but if at some point the parent package is updated, you won't see the effects because they're being masked by what's in Packages
. Therefore, it's probably best to extract only what you need, and keep an eye on your package updates in case new features are introduced that you want to take advantage of.
Good luck!
