Installation

Since the original plugin has been developed for Sublime Text 2 we have to install it manually.

  1. Go to https://github.com/fredbenenson/sublime-cypher, download ZIP of the repo, extract the content and rename the folder to ‘Cypher’. You can download the original repo from https://github.com/kollhof/sublime-cypher but Fred Benenson introduced a handy fix for UTF-8 data, which hasn't integrated at the point of this writing.

  2. Open Sublime Text 3, and go to ‘Browse Packages’ (CTRL + COMMAND + P then type ‘browse’ and hit ENTER)

  3. In the file browser's window, move the previously downloaded folder from Step 1 into here.

  4. Restart Sublime Text 3.

  5. Open a file containing some Cypher queries and switch to Cypher mode (CTRL + COMMAND + P then type ‘Cypher’ and hit ENTER)

Why are there few people using the Cypher language? Are there any other alternative languages?
