Is it possible to chain key binding commands in sublime text 2?

Question

There are times in Sublime Text when I want to reveal the current file in the side bar and then navigate around the folder structure.

This can be achieved using the

Answer 1

Stumbled upon similar problem. When trying to record macros, which involved „Save“ command, console threw at me „Unknown macros command save“ message. Worked my way around with elementary plugin.

1) Tools → New Plugin

import sublime, sublime_plugin

class MyChainedActionsCommand():
    def run(self):
        self.view.run_command("reveal_in_side_bar")
        self.view.run_command("focus_side_bar")

You need to use upper camel case notation for the class name. ST2 exposes this class for the command name with „Command“ suffix removed and the rest converted into the lowercase-underscore notation. I.e. in this example MyChainedActionsCommand could be run in sublime's console typing: view.run_command("my_chained_actions")

2) Sublime Text 2 → Preferences → Key Bindings — User

Bind it to shortcut:

{ "keys": ["alt+shift+l"], "command": "my_chained_actions" }

Heed commas.
