Launch Sublime Text 2 from the Mac OS X Terminal

Launch Sublime Text 2 from the Mac OS X Terminal

Sublime Text 2 ships with a CLI called subl (why not "sublime", go figure). This utility is hidden in the following folder (assuming you installed Sublime in /Applications like normal folk. If this following line opens Sublime Text for you, then bingo, you're ready.

open /Applications/Sublime\ Text\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl

You can find more (official) details about subl here: http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/osx_command_line.html

mocking - not testing - private functions in JavaScript, using new Function() - followup to https://gist.github.com/dfkaye/5971486

Mocking - not testing - private functions in JavaScript

Instead of trying to extract a private function, we can rely on mocking/spying. This gist shows how to use the "new Function()" constructor to replace an internal call so that we can mock, spy or stub.

Another response to @philwalton - 
http://philipwalton.com/articles/how-to-unit-test-private-functions-in-javascript/

This is a followup to https://gist.github.com/dfkaye/5971486 - a suggestion for 
*annotating* functions to be extracted and tested separately (publicly).
