Personally, while I would have agreed with the Soda UI theme a couple of weeks ago, the new UI theme works pretty well and looks much better.

As someone who was always a huge fan of Soda, and is the creator of the new theme, thanks a lot for the kind words!

Seconding that, the new theme is wonderful. Now you just need to throw some money at Dan Perrera to let you use his version of the icon - http://dribbble.com/shots/311515-A-Sublime-Text-2-Icon-that-....

I quite like the icon by Nate Beaty that's listed as tip #2 here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/tools-and-tips/sublime-tex...

I actually kind of hate that one, ha. It's a little too...on the nose, we'll say, with the code in the background and the tabs at the bottom. I like my icons a bit more subtle, personally.

Another great one (imo!) is here, by Adam Kiss: http://dribbble.com/shots/378184-Unofficial-Sublime-Text-2-I.... A different take than the rectangular look, reminds me of Ommwriter a bit.

I agree, I like the new default theme a lot better. Good work! I updated the original post.

dumb question but is there literally a theme called "new theme" or are you just talking about the new default sublimetext theme?

It definitely looks better, but the new tab colouring makes more difficult to see which tab is active, inactive or modified. Luckily Soda UI solves this.

I love the auto-completion.

Does anyone have an up-to-date snippet package for Rails 3.0+ ? The snippets included in the default installation are incomplete.

I have almost the same setup. Love it!

I have been struggling to stay from TextMate and move to Sublime. The Soda Theme + auto-completion makes it a tad easier. Thanks!

Has anyone tried the git plugin? I'm wondering how it compares to emacs's magit.

I don't use emacs but I do love the git plugin for sublime.

Should be "Getting Started with Sublime Text 2 _on Mac_".

Instead of:

  sudo ln -s "/Applications/Sublime Text 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl" \
  /usr/bin/subl
I would link it to /usr/local/bin/subl or just create an alias in ~/.profile file:

  alias subl='/Applications/Sublime\ Text\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl'
