Sublime Text Shortcut Guide

1. Open Mac Terminal
2. Go to homebrew.sh; copy and enter the following: /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
3. Enter brew install wget
4. Enter the following into your Mac Terminal: open ~/.bash_profile but if for whatever reason you don't have one configured, enter sudo nano .bash_profile.
5. To become sufficiently Rubified: brew install ruby
6. Download Sublime Text 3 then go to root/usr (e.g. cd alexanderjsingleton/).
7. Next after you've installed Sublime 3, open /Applications/Sublime\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl
8. Create a symlink called sublime by entering ln -s "/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl" /usr/local/bin/sublime
9. Enter the following into your Mac Terminal: open ~/.bash_profile but if for whatever reason you don't have one configured, enter sudo nano .bash_profile.
10. Exit and open your bash profile; the following example should be contained in the profile export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
11. Test by entering the directory of app-files (e.g. sublime .).
12. Boom! A special thanks to the great Ashley Nolan's blog, though for whatever reason my new MacBookPro couldn't access the bash-profile, so I had to create one, which is why I included that caveat in step 4. I trust this will assuage any systemAdmin anguish fellow developers may take for granted. :D
