How to edit a native build system in Sublime Text 2?

Ok this is very trivial question, but just cannot find answer anywhere.

I know there must be a JSON file with all the build systems somewhere, but I just cannot find it?

As dbw said, basically you should make a copy of default setting file to your User folder and edit it to override default one. And on ST3 most default setting files are packaged, use PackageResourceView will make your work easier.

For example edit default ST3 python buid setting on Windows:

  • ctrl+alt+p, type "prv" and select "open" to call PackageResourceView's open.
  • select "python" > "Python.sublime-build"
  • notice default file path is "...\Sublime Text 3\Packages\Python\Python.sublime-build", so create a user copy to Users "\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Packages\Python\Python.sublime-build" and edit it.

Mac:

Preferences ► Browse Packages will open the finder window where all the foo.sublime-build files are stored.

Build sys scripts you have created yourself should be in:

/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/

In sublime use this step

Tools -> Build System -> New Build System

Than a new build file will be opened . On saving this file , sublime will prompt the file dialogue option to save the file . Than you can see the location where sublime saves all the native build files . From this location you can edit the existing native build files .

Here is the doc on ST2 build systems

The Ruby build file, for instance, is located here:

~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/Ruby/Ruby.sublime-build
