Installing Sublime Text 3 on RHEL / Fedora


Here’s another three step guide to installing Sublime Text 3 on RHEL 6,7 / Fedora 18, 19, 20:-

  1. Download the installation script from the following gist.
    https://gist.github.com/sayak-sarkar/11b039f398ddcae88139
  2. Extract it to your home directory [or anywhere you like].
    $tar -xvf gist11b039f398ddcae88139-e339084ef22e956ea6ef8d04f8279ca70772f534.tar.gz
  3. Open your terminal (preferably as super user), navigate to your home directory and execute the shell script.
     #./sublime-text-3.sh

Voila!! You now have Sublime Text 3 installed on your machine. You may run it from the terminal or via the alt+f2 shortcut by simply typing in “sublime”.

Based upon my previous post on How to install Sublime Text 3 on Fedora. 😉

Enjoy!! 🙂

  1. It has downloaded sublime text 3 into /opt and extracted it but no icons are visible on GNOME 3. I’m using Fedora 21. Thanks for the post and hope you can tell me why it doesn’t work 🙂

  2. https://gist.github.com/sayak-sarkar/11b039f398ddcae88139 throws me an error of “No such file or directory”! 😦
