Useful packages:
Trailing Spaces (shows if you have extra whitespace anywhere in your project. I recommend changing the highlight color from blue)
Highlight Selected (upon double-click- shows multiples of words in file: useful when trying to see where a variable is coming from)
Seeing is Believing (most of us have this, though)
Useful commands in general on an Apple (these also apply in Atom):
command + tab: switches between applications
command + ~: switches between windows of the same application
command + number: changes to specific tabs if you have multiples open (may not work in Safari)
command + W: closes window/tab
command + M: minimizes the application window
command + A: highlights all
command + N: creates a new file
command + S: allows you to save a file
option + left/right arrow: scrolls by jumping left/right entire words
option + delete: deletes entire words
command + control + F: toggles fullscreen
Useful shortcuts in Atom (most carry over to Sublime):
command + D: highlights the same word and allows you to edit all at the same time (press D more if you want to select many)
command + \: collapses/shows the sidebar
command + F: find in file
command + shift + F: find all in project
command + shift + D: copies line and pastes duplicate below
command + T: finds a certain file in your entire project (very useful for everything past Event Manager!)
command + enter: makes a blank line below current line (helpful if you are in the middle of the line and need a new line)
command + shift + enter: makes a blank line above the current line (helpful so much of the time)
command + left/right arrow: moves cursor to the beginning/end of the line
command + shift + left/right arrow: highlights to the beginning/end of the line
command + down/up arrow: moves cursor to end of document
command + shift + up/down arrow: highlights to the beginning/end of document
control + command + up arrow: moves the current line up
control + command + down arrow: moves the current line down
control + shift + k: delete current line
