Cannot find settings under the file called `Base File.sublime-settings` #196

Closed evandrocoan closed 6 years ago

The package:

  1. https://github.com/ehuss/Sublime-Wrap-Plus

Name his settings file as Base File.sublime-settings. Then, it seems to cause PackageDev to not found the settings definitions for it:

Hm, iirc this name is a relic from ST1 days and was replaced by the "Preferences" file we use today. If it still works for compatibility, we should probably add support for it. If it doesn't, we shouldn't and the Wrap Plus package should be updated to have that file renamed.

I am not sure if Sublime Text accepts Base File as Preferences, but the plugin itself works with Base File as settings name. Despite it, why just not load every file with the *.sublime-settings as extension?

I checked its source code (as well as I could on mobile) and wasn't able to find a sublime.load_settings call. It's all view.settings.

Then, it seems Sublime Text itself is ignoring the file called Base File.sublime-settings

I just verified that ST does indeed read files named Base File.sublime-settings as it does Preferences.sublime-settings, so the two can essentially be considered equivalent. Although the former is likely a backwards-compatible alias for the latter.
