Trying to get Sublime Text 3 working from terminal
You need to add ~/bin to your PATH variable. In Terminal, type cd to return to your home directory. Then, type bin/subl .profile to open your ~/.profile file. If it doesn't exist, Sublime will just create an empty file. Add this line to it:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH


and save the file. Close out of Sublime, and restart Terminal. You now should be able to use the subl command from any directory.
