Launch Sublime Text from the Mac OS X Terminal

Create a symlink called sublime: ln -s /Applications/Sublime\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl /usr/local/bin/sublime

Check to see if /usr/local/bin is in your PATH: open ~/.zshrc

Make sure it says: export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/example/other/dirs/

Back in the terminal enter this to refresh the file: source ~/.zshrc

Now you can type sublime to open up Sublime Text, sublime . to open the current directory or sublime some-file.txt to open the directory/file in Sublime Text.

Now, to set Sublime Text as the default editor set the EDITOR environment variable: export EDITOR='sublime'

Totally works without -w. Thanks a ton!

Thanks!

Can just use this now (with no Sublime version):

ln -s /Applications/Sublime\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl /usr/local/bin/sublime
