PAWN for SA-MP in Sublime Text 3

About

Sublime Text 3 is a highly customizable Text-editor with a lot of cool features, that you don't get using the standard Pawno-editor or Notepad++. I know there are already a bunch of tutorials about this, but they don't explain how to install packages very well, which can be confusing for beginners and I added some instructions on using the program.

• You can fully customize the editor to something you feel comfortable with.
• Writing code is faster because of the auto-completion and a smart auto-correction.
• Your code will look a lot cleaner with the neat indentation it offers.
• A lot of useful (customizable) Keyboard Shortcuts to write code more easily.
• It also works for a lot of other languages, so it can be used as your primary text editor.
• Sublime Text is available for Windows, OS X and and Linux.
