Sublime Text configuration has a lot of comments:

// Place your settings in the file 
"User/Preferences.sublime-settings", which
// overrides the settings in here.
//
// Settings may also be placed in file type specific options 
files, for
// example, in Packages/Python/Python.sublime-settings for python 
files.
{
     // Sets the colors used within the text area
     "color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - 
Default/Monokai.tmTheme",

     // Note that the font_face and font_size are overridden in 
the platform
     // specific settings file, for example, "Preferences 
(Linux).sublime-settings".
     // Because of this, setting them here will have no effect: 
you must set them
     // in your User File Preferences.
     "font_face": "",
     "font_size": 10,

     // Valid options are "no_bold", "no_italic", "no_antialias", 
"gray_antialias",
     // "subpixel_antialias", "no_round" (OS X only), "gdi" 
(Windows only) and
     // "directwrite" (Windows only)
     "font_options": [],
