switching default text editor for Script editing
Hi, I've been using Unity in the past before the 5 version and it had a nice pre-built text editor for my scripting, now that I'm back on it I see that when I try to open the script it pops-up Microsoft Visual Studio.
1) I was wondering if there was an easy way to change the default text editor (to Sublime text maybe) instead of Visual studio.
also since I'm on a new computer when I try to script on Visual studio even if it's the first time I opened it I get all the fuctions and names ready in the drop-down list. while on Sublime Text I have to re-add them manually as I code down the way.
2) is there a way to import all the auto-complete drop down options from Visual Studio to Sublime Text?

Go to Edit -> Preferences -> External Tools ... there you can switch editor of choice. There's a browse option if you don't wanna use any of those that Unity recognizes.
Don't know the answer to your second question.
