The not so basic: copy paths as URIs, URLs, content as UTF8, content as data:uri base64 ( nice for embedding into CSS! ), copy as tags img/a/script/style, duplicate

Allows to display "file modified date" and "file size" on statusbar.

All commands available for files and folders(when applicable) .

F12 key

F12 key allows you to open the current file in browser. If you want to add a url to that feature:

• Right click any file on sidebar and select: "Project -> Edit Projects Preview URLs"
• Edit this file, and add your paths and URLs with the following structure:

{
	"S:/www/domain.tld":{
		"url_testing":"http://testing",
		"url_production":"http://domain.tld"
	},
	"C:/Users/luna/some/domain2.tld":{
		"url_testing":"http://testing1",
		"url_production":"http://productiontld2"
	}
}

url_testing allows you to set the url of your local server, opened via F12

url_production allows you to set the url of your production server, opened via ALT+F12

Notes on configuring the Open With menu:

Definitions file: User/SidebarEnhancements/Open With/Side Bar.sublime-menu (note the extra subfolder levels). To open it, right-click on any file in an open project and select Open With > Edit Applications...

• On OSX, the 'application' property simply takes the name of an application, to which the file at hand's full path will be passed as if with open ..., e.g.: "application": "Google Chrome"
• On OSX, invoking shell commands is NOT supported.

Todo

• Use a real clipboard integrated with the OS

FAQ

Q: Uninstall?

• Follow the instructions here: https://github.com/titoBouzout/SideBarEnhancements/issues/18

Q: Why the menu is not shown on Open Files?

• It should be mentioned that the package's context menu is only available for files and folders in a project (section Folders in the side bar), and not on the open files listed at the top of the side bar, due to a limitation of ST2.

Using the External Libraries

• "getImageInfo" to get width and height for images from "bfg-pages". See: http://code.google.com/p/bfg-pages/
• "desktop" to be able to open files with system handlers. See: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/desktop
• "send2trash" to be able to send to the trash instead of deleting for ever!. See: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Send2Trash
• "hurry.filesize" to be able to format file sizes. See: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/hurry.filesize/
