sublime-compressor

Small plugin which transparently decompresses gzip (.gz), bzip2 (.bz2), LZMA (.xz) files when opened in Sublime Text.

This is an alpha release, use with care, feedback & code welcome!

When opening a new file this plugin will check the magic bytes for identifying the compression format. If this matches, the useless binary view of the file will be closed and a new temporary file will be opened as readonly, filled with the decompressed content.

Installation

As usual via Package Control.

Current limitations (feedback & code welcome)

  • read only (would be cool if compressed file was substituted on save)
  • no partial decompression (full file is decompressed and inserted in new file, maybe it's possible to just decompress a window)
  • re-opening compressed file that is opened in a tab already will not jump to that tab but decompress it into a second copy
