Troubleshooting

I updated from Sublime Text 3 to Sublime Text 4 and I now see certain whitespace characters represented as code points. I would prefer to see these as literal characters.

If you are using Sublime Text, everything in its latest update continues to function as it has with Sublime Text 3. You may notice some minor cosmetic changes, but these do not affect any of Scribe’s features or the use of regular expressions.

One new setting in Sublime is to show white space as code points. For example, instead of seeing a nonbreaking space as a white space, you may see <0xa0> in your file. This is still treated as a single character and is merely a display preference.

If you'd prefer to turn this display feature off:

  1. Go to Preferences > Settings in the menu bar. Sublime will open the default settings in the left panel and the user settings in the right panel.
  2. Override the setting by modifying it in the user settings panel. Add the line: "draw_unicode_white_space": "none",
