In Cloud9 (based on the Ace editor) I can define arbitrary code folding regions within comments, for example:
// Descriptor {
function() {
// Code
}
// }
Folds to:
// Descriptor {<->}
Try it here to see what I mean.
Is there an existing way to replicate this in Sublime?
Select the block of code and Hit "Ctrl + Shift + [" to fold.
To unfold place pointer before the folded block and hit "Ctrl + Shift + ]"
here's an youtube video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80UUPMUAP-g
From http://wesbos.com/sublime-text-code-folding/
To fold a block, place your cursor anywhere within the block you want
to fold. Now you just hit the folding keys to collapse that block.
Command + Option + [
The thing you will have to remember is that Sublime Text's folding mechanism is dependent on code intention levels and not scope.
Yes, you use CMD+K+1 to fold at level 1, CMD+K+2 for level 2, etc
CMD+K+J will unfold all
CMD+OPT+[ will fold / hide the current level of indendation, CMD+OPT+] will unfold any of the yellow rectangle symbols at the end of a line
Comment folding works if content is a bit deeper. Instead of this
/*
line 1
line 2
line 3
*/
use:
/*
line 1
line 2
line 3
*/

Is there any plugin or shortcut to hide all except code section in sublime text 2?
I need to fold all except section at a time , Not fold one section at a time.
Thanks~
If you'll hover with the mouse over the line numbers you'll see arrows - clicking on any of them will fold/collapse the code
If you want to collapse/expand all - you can do so by going to edit->code folding and choose "fold all" or "unfold all":
In addition to the other answers it is also possible to fold based on level as well. So for example looking at the default key bindings for fold.
Searching for fold key bindings.
So for example a foldall, or folding level 1 would be to hold Ctrl followed by pressing the sequence k and then 1:
Or folding level 2 would be to hold Ctrl followed by pressing the sequence k and then 2:
Or unfolding all would be would be to hold Ctrl followed by pressing the sequence k and then 0 or in my defaults I also seem to have it bound to the letter j:
Warning.
Pressing Ctrl+k twice will remove a line or a count of lines.
But not really cause you can put them back one by one by Ctrl+u
One thing you can do is select the Except code bloc using a regular expression, for instance using except(.|\n)*?raise.* in your case. You can then select "Find all" in the search bar, then Edit->Code Folding -> Fold .
Windows shortcut : Ctrl-Shift-[
Mac shortcut: Cmd-Alt-[
All the Except bloc will then be collapsed.
I know this is an old question, but it still comes up high in search results and none of the answers quite do what the OP wanted.
select the code you don't want to be hidden
use "Selection" -> "Invert Selection" to select the code you do want to be hidden instead
use ctrl + shift + [ or Command + Option + ] to collapse the selection(s)
This will leave you with just the code you originally had selected visible.
Fold and UnFold function or class base only for MAC:
* Fold: command + K, command + 1
* UnFold: command + K, command + J
In my sass code, I have inline comments and I wish to remove these in sublime text. Is it possible to permanently delete all comment content alone?
#function emCalc($values) {
$emValues: '';
$max: length($values); //Get the total number of parameters passed
#for $i from 1 through $max {
$value: (nth($values, $i)); //Take the individual parameter
$value: $value / ($value * 0 + 1); //Doing this gets you one unit (1px)
$value: $value / $em-base * 1em; //Divide the px value by emBase and return the value as em
$emValues: #{$emValues + $value}; //Append to array
#if $i < $max {
$emValues: #{$emValues + " "}; //Adding space between parameters (except last), if there are multiple parameters
}
}
#return $emValues; //Call emCalc like so emCalc(10, 20, 30, 40) it should return margin: 0.625em 1.25em 1.875em 2.5em
}
You'll need to double check this (have a backup handy!), but the following regular expression should work in the "replace" window, with regular expressions enabled (the * icon):
Open the "replace" window (ctrl + h / cmd + option + f)
Enable regular expression matching by making sure the * icon is selected
Enter the following in the "Find What?" box
\/\/.*
Leave the "replace with" box empty to delete found text.
Click "Replace All"
Edit
as #ollie noted, this also will delete any urls prefixed with //. The following (lightly tested) regex should serve to better target comments: (^\/\/.*)|(\s+\/\/.*)
Edit v2
A solution for single and multi-line comments (^\/\/.*)|(\s+\/\/.*)|((\/\*)(.|\n)+?(\*\/))
If you have no other possibility, you could select every // (Select first // then CtrlD while there's comments left if my memory is correct).
Then press ShiftEnd to select every end of line with a // and Del ! :)
(There's probably a plugin for that, but this is the simplest method I think. This suggest that all your // refers to the beginning of a comment, of course)
None of the answers here seem to take advantage of the fact that the syntax highlighting has already determined where all the comments are - just execute this in the Python console (View menu -> Show Console) to select all comments:
view.sel().clear(); view.sel().add_all(view.find_by_selector('comment'))
(press Enter after typing/pasting it to execute it)
then press Delete to delete all the selections and Esc to go back to single selection mode
None of the other answers cover all cases (multi-line comments, single line comments, double-slash comments and slash-star/star-slash comments).
In order to match all possible cases (without matching URLs), use the following:
(^[\s]*?\/\/.*)|(/\*[\s\S]+?\*/)
Here is what I do in ST3 in HTML to strip all comments, especially nasty comments embedded within <p> body text, for example ...
package control install SelectUntil
quit and restart sublime
ctrl+f <!--
alt+enter to select all instances of <!--
ctrl+shift+s will pull up an input field, where
you can type: -->
hit delete!
Well well, there is an easy way to do it in mac Sublime Text if you are sure there are no // in print statements.
search for // and hit that cmd+ctrl+G and then to select the whole line which has hit cmd+shift+Arrow and delete it. Assuming you have used only single line comments
I am using Windows 8 OS
I have some projects where I repeatedly add the same tags to different types of elements, but the format of how the elements are presented through code always stays the same. I'm looking for shortcuts that will help me do these tasks quickly. Is there a shortcut that lets you add the same tag for multiple lines that you specify? I know you can do (CTR + F3) To select clone tags and change all of them, but I want to add tags to elements that previously had no tag. Is there a way you can make your own shortcuts for your tags, like if I type in "li" It will automatically put in "" and all I have to do is hit enter?
Here is an example of the elements and tags I added:
<ul>
<li type="square">Extra Grip
<li type="square">Made of Titanium
<li type="square">Built in Selsoft Processor
<li type="square">Portable</ul>
<b>MBS:</b> 44 kN (10000 lbf)<br>
<b>Weight:</b> 1 lbs 13.2 oz (828 g)<br>
<b>Length:</b> 14.40" (36.6 cm)<br>
<b>Width:</b> 3.75" (9.5 cm)<br>
<b>Height:</b> 1.00" (2.5 cm)<br>
<b>Material:</b> Titanium
Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V let you copy/cut/paste lines if you don't select anything. So, Ctrl+X doesn't "delete" a line, it cuts it. To delete a line, the default shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+K :)
Highlighting a bunch of lines then hitting Cmd (Ctrl?) +Shift+L gives you multi-cursors on each line. I do that, followed by Cmd + Right arrow (End?) to get easily get a cursor at the end of a series of lines to simultaneously type something after each.
Ctrl+Shift+J expands the selection to the indentation level of the current line. So if you want to select a block of code with the same indentation it's really useful.
Alt + F3 select all occurrences of current word for multiple editing. Very useful.

Have you tried to make your own snippets? It may not be exactly what you are asking for, but could be another way to do it.
Try the New Snippet command in the Tools-menu and add the following and save it:
<snippet>
<content><![CDATA[
<li type="square">${1:Item} ${2:}
]]></content>
<tabTrigger>li</tabTrigger>
</snippet>
This will enter an <li>-tag in the current file if you type li and then press Tab.
You can also add a <scope> tag to limit it to HTML-files.
I have a text file with 100's of news articles.
I need to Select All > Take cursor to the beginning of each line and have the 'multiple cursors' open so I can add some data.
Since the new articles do not have the same begging character, I can not use CTRL+F3.
Is there a way to [CTRL] + [A] (Select All) then > Go to the begging of each line with 'multiple cursors' open ?
You should select all with ctrl+A.
Then split the selection into one selection per line with ctrl+shift+L.
Then press the left arrow key.
Now you should be able to type data at the beginning of each line.
Let me add some answer, ( work in sublime 2 / sublime 3 )
i try with #Riccardo Marotti step
, but when the article have tab it will lead to the very far first line
So I make some fix , To make cursor in every front line or every end of line :
ctrl+A // select all
ctrl+Shift+L // Add cursor to all line
Shift+Home // put cursor to first word in the line
to get the end of line no need to do the first step again if you are in the first line, just do this one :
Shift+End // put cursor to end of line, then
click "right arrow" to remove the drag
or you can try this one (really an experimental works)
Just use you center of mouse, click it (the center roll of your
mouse), then drag, this will lead to add more cursor
, then just press left/right
or try to seek more here :

override-shortcut-for-multiple-cursors
hope this help
I think ctrl+alt+down (or up) when your cursor is at the beginning of a line might be what you're looking for. It will put the cursor on multiple lines, and what you type will be duplicated on each.
I've been trying Vim for any text editing work for almost a week now. I want to know the fastest way to select a C function definition.
For example, if I have a function like this:
void helloworlds( int num )
{
int n;
for ( n = 0; n < num; ++n ) {
printf( "Hello World!\n" );
}
}
How would I be able to delete the whole definition including the function name?
As is common in Vim, there are a bunch of ways!
Note that the first two solutions depend on an absence of blank lines.
If your cursor is on the line with the function name, try d}. It will delete everything to the next block (i.e. your function body).
Within the function body itself, dap will delete the 'paragraph'.
You can delete a curly brace block with da}. (If you like this syntax, I recommend Tim Pope's fantastic surround.vim, which adds more features with a similar feel).
You could also try using regular expressions to delete until the next far left-indented closing curly brace: d/^}Enter
]] and [[ move to the next/previous first-column curly brace (equivalent to using / and ? with that regex I mentioned above. Combine with the d motion, and you acheive the same effect. In addons like Python-mode, these operators are redefined to mean exactly what you're looking for: move from function to function.
How to delete the whole block, header included
If you're on the header/name, or the line before the block, da} should do the trick.
If you're below a block, you can also make use of the handy 'offset' feature of a Vim search. d?^{?-1 will delete backwards to one line before the first occurrence of a first-column opening curly brace. This command's a bit tricky to type. Maybe you could make a <leader> shortcut out of it.
Plugins
I don't do much C programming in Vim, but there are surely plugins to help with such a thing. Try Vim Scripts or their mirror at GitHub.
To delete an entire function, including its definition, such as:
function tick() {
// ...
}
Move to the line with the function name.
Move the cursor to the opening brace, f{ should do it, or simply $.
Press V%d (Visual line, move to matching pair, delete)
If your functions look like this:
function tick()
{
// ...
}
Move to the line with the function name.
Press J (join the current line with line bellow. This also puts your cursor at the last character on the resulting line, {, just the one we need for the next command.)
Press V%d (Visual line, move to matching pair, delete.)
or
Move to the line with the function name.
Press V[Down]%d (Visual line, move one line down, move to matching pair, delete.)
If you are willing to install plugins vim-textobj-function will give you vif for Visual select Inside Function and vaf for Visual select A Function.
daf will delete the function, both the line with the signature and the function body ({})
The text object defined by this plugin are more specific and they don't rely on the function body being a contiguous block of text or { being placed at the first character on the line.
The drawback is that you depend on an external plugin.
You can use this shortcut to delete not only the function, also the lines between curly braces, i.e the code between if-else statements,while,for loops ,etc.
Press Shitf + v [Will get you in visual Mode] at the curly brace start/end.
Then Press ] + } i.e ] + Shitf ] - If you are in start brace.
Then Press [ + { i.e [ + Shitf [ - If you are in end brace.
Then DEL to delete the lines selected.
The simplest and most direct way way is as follows (works anywhere inside function):
v enter visual mode
{ move to first brace in function (may have to press more than once)
o exchange cursor from top to bottom of selection
} extend selection to bottom of function
d delete selected text
The complete command sequence would be v{o}d. Note that you can do other operations besides delete the same way. For example, to copy the function, use y (yank) instead of d.
Use this simple way
1.Go to the function definition
2.dd - delete function definition
3.d -start delete operation
4.shift+5(%) - delete the lines between { to }
If your function were separated by the blank lines, just type:
dip
which means "delete inner paragraph".
Another way is to go to the line of the start of your function and hit: Vj% (or V%% if your style puts the opening brace on the same line). This puts you into Visual-Line mode and the percent takes you to the matching closing brace. In the second style, the first % takes you to the opening brace on the line that you selected and the second to its matching closing brace.
Also works for parentheses, brackets, C-style multi-line comments and preprocessor directives.
See the manual for more info.
Pre-condition: be somewhere inside the function.
Go to the previous closing curly bracket on the first line using
[]
Then delete down to the next closing curly bracket on the first line using
d][
Most posted methods have a downside or two. Usually, when working withing a class definition of some object oriented language, you might not have an empty line after the function body, because many code formatters put the closing braces of last method and class on consecutive lines. Also, you might have annotations on top of the function. To make matters worse, there might be empty lines within your function body. Additionally you'd prefer a method that works with the cursor anywhere within the function, because having to move it to a specific line or worse, character, takes valuable time. Imagine something like
public class Test {
/* ... */
#Test
public void testStuff() {
// given
doSetup();
// when
doSomething();
// then
assertSomething();
}
}
In this scenario, vap won't do you any good, since it stops at the first empty line within your function. v{o} is out for the same reason. va{V is better but doesn't catch the annotation on top of the method. So what I would do in the most general case is va{o{. va{ selects the whole function body (caveat: if your cursor is within a nested block, for instance an inner if statement, then you'll only get that block), o puts the cursor to the beginning of the selection and { selects the whole paragraph prepending your selection. This means you'll get the function definition, all annotations and doc comments.
the most easy way I found is:
Get to the line where the function starts and do this: ^^vf{% to mark the entire function and then whatever you like.
^^ - start of the line
v - start visual mode
f - jump to the next search character
{ - this is the search character
% - jump to the closing brackets
This is also very logical after you have used it a few times.
non-visual way:
d/^}/e
... delete by searching for } at line beining, including it for deletion.
without /e (not mentioned in above answers), solution is incomplete.
with /e - searching goes to end of match, so closing bracket is included, and command is well for yanking too:
y/^}/e
if you use neovim version :>0.5
the modern way is to use treesitter and build your model, then you can be selected or yanked or deleted...
Tree-sitter is a parser generator tool and an incremental parsing library. It can build a concrete syntax tree for a source file and efficiently update the syntax tree as the source file is edited
I suggested this video on youtube to learn how to use treesitter to build your model : Let's create a Neovim plugin using Treesitter and Lua
I tried all the top answers here, but none of them works except the one by Nick which suggests to press f{ to get to the opening curly brace. Then V%d to delete the whole function.
Note that, the whole function gets yanked, so you can paste it elsewhere. I come across this use-case frequently, especially when moving if blocks inside another.
I use this map. It work for me
"delete function definition
"only support function body surround by {}
nnoremap <LEADER>df {v/{<cr>%d
