How do I open Python scripts using Sublime Text from terminal

Question

Quick Question ! I want to change settings to open python files by default using Sublime Text when I open it from terminal.

$macbook: Open HelloWorld.py

It would be opened directly on Sublime Text without using vim to edit the files.

First create a symlink to Sublime then use it to open a file. Assuming your symlink is sublime it would be something like this:

sublime HelloWorld.py

Yes! I tried this before I had this problem : -bash: sublime: command not found – user3378649 Mar 12 '14 at 19:01
Did you create the symlink? – hanleyhansen Mar 12 '14 at 19:06
Yes ! When I run this: ln -s /Applications/Sublime\ Text\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl /usr/local/bin/sublime ln: /usr/local/bin/sublime: File exists .. – user3378649 Mar 12 '14 at 19:11
It means that I created Symlink – user3378649 Mar 12 '14 at 19:13
Try running `which sublime` and post the output – hanleyhansen Mar 12 '14 at 19:20
