I have a Macbook Air with Mac OSX 10.8.2 . I have been wondering how do I select the File Menu which I am so used to doing in Windows using Alt+F, so that I do not have to click on the File menu each time I need to do something. I googled and checked out a bunch of articles as well. This Wikipedia article suggests

CTRL+F2 then F. I tried this in Sublime Text and did not work for me. Any clues?

On OS X, anything that has a keyboard shortcut will be shown next to the relative task.
To access and browse the upper menu bar it is CtrlF2. You will see the icon highlight and you are able to browse the menus with the arrow keys at that point.
If you have the function keys set as special function keys, eg. dim display, play/pause, etc. you either must change them to perform as standard function keys in System Preferences » Keyboard or use the shortcut fnCtrlF2.
