Open the suggestotron folder as a project in your text editor.
In **Sublime Text 2**, you can use the `Project > Add Folder to Project...` menu option:
<img src='img/sublime_add_folder_to_project.png' />
Select your `suggestotron` folder from the file picker that opens. If everything works out Sublime should look something like this:
<img src='img/sublime_project_as_folder.png' />

  files. The ones we want to focus on today are:
