VintageEx
A rendition of Vim's command-line mode for Sublime Text 2.
License
This whole package is distributed under the MIT license (see LICENSE.txt).
Compatibility
VintageEx aims at full cross-platform compatibility. Howerver, I cannot test under OS X, so patches and feedback are welcome.
Installation
Download the latest version, put it under Installed Packages and restart
Sublime Text.
VintageEx doesn't replace Vintage: To use vi key bindings, you need to enable the Vintage package (shipped with Sublime Text and ignored by default).
VintageEx extends the vi-like functionality provided py Vintage by adding a command-line mode that tries to remain close to Vim's.
Also, because VintageEx uses commands in the Vintage package, this package
must be under your Packages folder with that name. This is mostly important
to keep in mind if you contribute code to Vintage and have deleted the original
package.
Overview
To open the command line, press :.
VintageEx offers tab completion of top-level commands, so you can type a letter and press Tab to cycle through available commands.
To see the implemented commands, you can look through ex_commands.py.
Configuration
These settings should be stored in your personal preferences (Packages/User/Preferences.sublime-settings).

the variables $COLORTERM and $TERM will be read in turn when a terminal is needed.
