Quickly cycle between your favorite fonts in Sublime Text with the press of a key. Some research says that this makes you productive. wink wink
The simplest method of installation is through Package Control, which can be found at this site: https://packagecontrol.io/installation
Just install Package Control, and select FontCycler in the list of available packages.
You can cycle through the fonts by pressing the F10 key, and cycle backwards with Shift+F10.
You need to set the fonts_list key in the Preferences.sublime-settings file to a list of fonts you want to cycle within. The fonts need to be pre-installed on the system.
You can specify just a font name or an object with the properties font_face, font_size, line_padding_bottom, line_padding_top, word_wrap and wrap_width. font_face is a required property on the object.
