How do I fetch themes inside Sublime's text cache, or where are the pretty text color schemes that have been cached located?
I am on mac.
it is also important to note that the file with the path segment "Packages / Solarized Color Scheme / Solarized (Dark) .tmTheme" does not exist anywhere in the file system. Sublime text has some kind of caching mechanism that I don't understand. there is a cache folder containing binaries that are named similarly (added specifically with .cache), but sublime text does not recognize them as something it can use.
in my preference I have this line:
"color_scheme": "Packages/Solarized Color Scheme/Solarized (Dark).tmTheme"
But the path Packages/Solarized Color Scheme/Solarized (Dark).tmTheme
doesn't exist anywhere on my computer. I would like to copy my theme to a new computer, but I cannot find it. I ran sudo find / | grep tmTheme
, which didn't find it. Sublime text needs to have some kind of cache with the theme's virtual directory? seems strange.
To point it again, I ran the following command:
sudo find / | grep tmTheme
And it didn't work out. So the file path Packages/Solarized Color Scheme/Solarized (Dark).tmTheme
does not exist anywhere on my system, not at ~Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/Solarized Color Scheme/Solarized (Dark).tmTheme
or elsewhere.

Sublime Text 3 saves its default packages and many plugins (installed via the Control Package) as zipped files .sublime-package
. In OS X, package management packages are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Installed Packages
. It is highly recommended to use a plugin to access the contents of these packages PackageResourceViewer
. Once installed, open the Command Palette, type , then select . Scroll through the list and select the package of interest, then tap . All files in the package will be extracted to . Then you can view the source, make changes, or whatever. prv

Enter~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/<Package Name>
However, be aware that any package updates will not take effect as the directory Packages
takes precedence over Installed Packages
.

The file can be trickier to find due to the fact that it is Sublime Text 3. I personally don't use ST3, but from what I understand, ST3 packages are run from *.sublime-package
files. Try using the following program to view the contents of these ZIP archives.
