Finding a Shortcut Equivalent to Ctrl + H for Sublime on Mac: A Game-Changer for Rails Developers

As a Rails developer, I'm sure you'd agree that navigating through project directories can be a tedious task. Even brand new projects often contain dozens of directories, making it difficult to quickly locate the file or folder you need. This is where AdvancedNewFile comes in - a powerful plugin that allows you to create files at any level of your project folder hierarchy without taking your hands off the keyboard.

But what about when you need to find and replace text across multiple files? In Windows, the trusty Ctrl + H shortcut does the trick, but on Mac, the equivalent is not as straightforward. Or is it?

For Sublime Text users on Mac, there's a workaround that'll make your life easier. By combining the Find in Files feature with some clever keyboard shortcuts, you can achieve similar results to Ctrl + H without sacrificing speed or efficiency.

Here's how:

1. Open the Command Palette in Sublime (Ctrl + Shift + P on Windows, ⌘ + Shift + P on Mac) and type 'Find in Files' to access the feature.

2. Enter your search query and select the files you want to search within.

3. Press ⌘ + D to mark the current selection for replacement.

4. Use ⌘ + Shift + H to open the Find panel, where you can enter your replacement text.

Voilà! You'll now be able to find and replace text across multiple files with ease, all without leaving the comfort of your Sublime Text workflow.

This shortcut is just one of many that I consider essential for Rails development. If you're interested in exploring more, I recommend checking out my dotfiles repository on GitHub, where you can browse my latest Sublime Text settings files and snippets.

But what about discovering new Sublime Text packages? Fear not - there's a fantastic online repository and discovery tool available for Sublime plugins. With the plugin community being huge and constantly growing, you're sure to find something that suits your needs.
