Navigating through everything

Sublime is known for its ability to quickly move between and around files and lines. In this section, we are going to master how to navigate our code quickly and easily.

Go To Anything

We already learned how to use the Go To Anything feature, but it can do more than just searching for filenames. We can conduct a fuzzy search inside a "fuzzily found" file. Really? Yeah, we can. For example, we can type the following inside the Go To Anything window:

isl#wld

This will make Sublime perform a fuzzy search for wld inside the file that we found by fuzzy searching isl; it can thus find the word world inside a file named island.

We can also perform a fuzzy search in the current file by pressing Ctrl +; in Windows or Linux and command + P, # in OS X. It is very common to use fuzzy search inside HTML files because it immediately shows all the elements and classes that match, accelerating navigation.
