I like to make text files with Sublime and use them as daily-reminder lists. I would like to be able to strike a line through the things I've completed versus erase them. Is there any easy way to do this on Sublime?

    For text content the only font effects Sublime supports are Bold and Italic. With a custom syntax you could perhaps assign a different visual color. You may want to check out [PlainTasks](https://packagecontrol.io/packages/PlainTasks) though; it lets you visually check items that are complete or archive them by moving them to the bottom of the list. – OdatNurd May 20 '18 at 19:56
  • @OdatNurd Hi. Bigfan here. Closely follow your youtube channel. Watched most of the YT channel videos on sublime customization. But I need this feature really badly. PlainTasks require you to create a separate file. What I want is to strikeout text with a shortcut in any file. Be is .txt or .cpp or .rb or .js file. I would love to talk to you (not through character llimiting comments) somewhere for explaining/building this as I am starting on your package development series. I just need a global shortcut to strikethrough text in any filetype. Really good work. Loved your latest sync video. – risingStark Oct 05 '21 at 18:24

I know I'm late to the game on this and this isn't exactly an answer to strikethrough but you can use the emojis in Sublime Text. For example I just use the green check mark emoji and put that in front of the line I'm marking as complete

    @uriDium: my god bro, just copy the emoji and paste it in sublime and just reuse/repeat. There's no shortcuts for Emojis. – Grogu Jan 13 '23 at 16:59
  • That's cute man. I appreciate it ✅ – 6rchid Mar 14 '23 at 05:31
  • There is a partial shortcut, in Windows. `⊞`+`.` (winkey-period) will bring up a little menu full of emojis, and let you choose the one(s) you want. It works in most programs, including Sublime. – spoko Sep 01 '23 at 13:28

No, but you can use an online Text Editor like this and copy-paste into the Sublime Text.
