Thanks for this. Just had to change the path to the binary to /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text instead of /tmp/sublime_text

sublime_binary_path = "<sublime text binary's location>"
i think this will not make people confused

Hello! I wrote the script for my personal usage rather than for everybody. And I think, absolute path and variable value are 2 very basic things that any user needs to know before run any python script on the system. Ofc I can add a simple comment to tell user to edit it. But overall, read and understand very short script is needed to avoid executing random malicious scripts on the system.

I still get a pop up all the time! "thanks for trying sublime, would you like to buy?"

Because it has an other thread that do check license from internet. This script patches the license key check only.

Folks, I DO NOT USE the sublime. Just wanted to take a look. I did. Just making a found patch (see ref) a bit more clean to my mind.

The patch was ok at the time of post. It's not maintained or otherwise supported.
