Where to find a list of scopes for Sublime2 (or textMate?)

Question

in .tmTheme files the scope key defines how a element is highlighted:

    
        name
        HTML: Attribute

There are a couple of sublime text packages you can use to do this.

Installing Package Control

Go to https://sublime.wbond.net/ and click "Installation" and follow the instructions to install sublime text package manager.

Packages Which Display the Current Scope

I know of a couple of sublime text packages which display the current scope in the status bar.

• ScopeStatus (Sublime Text 2 Only)
• ScopeHunter
• Scope​Always (Created By Me)
• CurrentScope(Sublime Text 2 Only)

To install a package with sublime text package manager open sublime text's command palette (ctrl+shift+p) and choose the command Package Control: Install Package and then select one of the above packages.
