Here're the steps.

  1. Open Sublime
  2. Click on Settings -> Key Bindings
  3. This opens a file with Default (OSX).sublime-keymap
  4. After the first { insert the below text
{ "keys": ["ctrl+tab"], "command": "next_view" },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+tab"], "command": "prev_view" },
  1. Save the file.

Now, we can freely move between tabs just like any other editor.
