I'm working on some file in my sublime text 2 editor, and I want to open a folder in which that file resides.
I know there is a 2 step procedure to do this already
step 1: right click and reveal in sidebar (ctrl+shift+r) step 2: right click on the same file in sidebar and click open containing folder. I would like to know if there is only one shortcut key to do the same. This is something that I use quite often.
You can add the line below to your Default (Windows).sublime-keymap:
{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+e"], "command": "open_dir", "args": {"dir": "$file_path", "file": "$file_name"} } 
super+shift+e
By default the editor has this item in context menu. If you need this feature on tabs you have to create a file with name "Tab Context.sublime-menu" in "\Data\Packages\User\" (if does not exist yet) and add this code:
[ { "caption": "-" }, { "command": "open_dir", "args": {"dir": "$file_path", "file": "$file_name"}, "caption": "Open Containing Folder…" } ] Do not forget formatting lines as a JSON file! If you do not need a separator before this menu item you need to delete first block with caption "-"! You can add any other menu in this file. For example:
{ "command": "copy_path", "caption": "Copy File Path" }, 
By default the editor has this item in context menu. The latest Sublime versions seem to have lost this ability somehow, I can no longer right click on the file name at the top.
User\MyNewPlugin folder here, and add the Tab Context.sublime-menu file inside that folder, w/ the specified contents)This worked for me: assuming you have opened the file whose enclosing folder you want to open, use the Menu > Project > Add Folder To Project command.
A new window should open with the enclosing folder. Just click 'Open' and you're done!
Install Open project path by shortcut. Then setup keybindings in your User keymap file
{ "keys": ["f10"], "command": "open_project_folder" }, { "keys": ["ctrl+f10"], "command": "open_file_folder" } Initiate the key bindings on a open file (f10 to open the directory you have set as the project folder, ctrl+f10 to open the folder of the current file.)
I found this plugin: https://github.com/kallepersson/Sublime-Finder
The instructions are pretty straightforward-- I just use CMD+SHIFT+P and type "finder" and press enter and it opens a finder window.
I think this might only work on macs though.
Simple solution... no package or edits needed!
The context menu item "Open Containing Folder..." is available by right-clicking in the document itself (not the tab).
I agree, it's a but unintuitive, but thankfully it's a built in feature!
In sublimetext3 there is a package to sync current open file with the sidebar explorer. SyncedSidebar
