Not even &apos;sudo subl&apos; works)&lt;p&gt;One of the main reasons I use an editor like TM or S2 for is system administration which often requires root. For development I&apos;m usually using the JetBrains IDE with the respective plugins.</text></comment>

I&apos;d sooner bite the bullet on vim if I&apos;m going the ugly route.</text></comment>
