Set alternate path for sublime snippets?

Question

I'm writing JS and I need sublime to look in another path where I keep my snippets. I don't want to manually copy them over. I just want sublime to look for them in another location.

How can I achieve this?

I looked in Preferences.sublime-settings and did not see any thing.

I would recommend having a *Snippets* folder in your *Packages – User* directory, and then just keeping all your snippets there. Sublime will be able to see all of them. — Saad, Nov 08 '15 at 07:19

Why don't you simply create a symbolic link?

ln -s source_dir target_dir

I thought about that but there will be x files. Can you use ln on folders? – cade galt Nov 09 '15 at 23:40
