After installation you will have:

• Default keyboard shortcuts:
  • ctrl+n,e
• Package Settings: Preferences > Package Settings > NodeEval

    {
      // The absolute path to your nodejs executable
      // e.g. "/usr/local/bin/node" or "C:\\bin\\node.exe"
      "node_command": "/usr/local/bin/node",
  
      // How to output the results, options include:
      // - new [default] "send output to a new file"
      // - console       "send output to a new Panel (Console) view"
      // - replace       "overwrite the current file/selection with the output"
      // - clipboard     "there is no output, output copied to clipboard"
      "output": "new",
  
      // if output type is "new" the output is overwritten, set to false to append the output
      "overwrite_output": true,
  
      // if set to true the output is copied to the clipboard
      // if `output` is set to "clipboard" this value is ignored
      "copy_to_clipboard": false,
  
      // refresh rate threshold for "continuous" mode (in milliseconds)
      "threshold": 200,
  
      // Set any extra ENVIRONMENT Variables as an object
      // @example
      //    "env": {
      //      "NODE_PATH":"/path/to/node",
      //      "NODE_MODULES":"/path/to/node_modules"
      //    }
      // @note: if you start sublime from a terminal using `subl` your normal environment
      // variables should be available to you 
      "env": {}
  
    }
  

The commands work on a selection, multiple selections or if nothing is selected the whole document. Your script will be eval'd through nodejs in it's own thread.

Why not just use the NodeJS plugin, or the nodejsLauncher plugin ?
the NodeJS plugin is awesome, but it's also really bloated. also the nodejsLauncher only works on Windows.
