Any reason we didn't bring along base16-textmate template in the move? #19

Closed joshgoebel closed 2 years ago

Ref: https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-textmate/

We're still referencing it in our documentation...

I think @JamyGolden looked into this and decided against it, especially with Sublime's move to a different theme format and the installation instructions being wrong (plus not being sure how to fix them).

joshgoebel commented 2 years ago

We probably shouldn't still have it as an example in our style guidelines then if we don't believe it's good enough should we?

belak commented 2 years ago

I've updated styling.md to remove the reference to textmate - is there anything else that needs to be done, or can we close this for now?

In the future it may be good to have a Sublime template (and a working Textmate template).

JamyGolden commented 2 years ago

Yeah it would definitely be good to have a SublimeText template. While the TextMate templates aren't supported by the latest SublimeText3 anymore, I wasn't able to get the TextMate templates to work on TextMate2 (I just downloaded the latest TextMate 2).

We don't have one? @belak Please make me a repo and I can solve that I think.

belak commented 2 years ago

I think you should be able to make one - if that isn't the case, I'll get to it some time in the next day.

Can you cite a link or evidence for this? I'm asking in the Sublime Text Discord and being told the old .tmTheme files should continue to work just fine in the latest versions...?

There is a new format (http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/color_schemes.html) but it doesn't seem to be required, nor the prior one deprecated.

joshgoebel commented 2 years ago

Sublime Text also supports a subset of features using the TextMate .tmTheme format. Before Sublime Text 3.1, only the .tmTheme format was supported.

Oh I guess this is saying a lot... I'm going to see if I can find what this subset is.
