I’ve been trying out Sublime for the past few days. Long-time TextMate user.

The one thing I struggle with most is finding stuff in a document. I can use CMD+r to find a selector, but what if I’m looking for something else, a comment maybe, or something else?

If I use CMD+f, Sublime will put a box around all of the instances of my search term, which isn’t what I want either. Worst, it keeps a box around all of the instances:

I need to “disengage” the find before I can move on.

Is there a TextMate “QuickFind” (Ctrl+s) equivalent in Sublime Text?

I find searching/navigating through a document in Sublime to be really, really frustrating.

    After looking for a very long time, I’ve found it. The Sublime equivalent to Textmate’s quick search/find is Find > Incremental Find, or cmd+i.

    Now, I’m officially a Sublime convert.
