Description
I ran into the pb described in https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript-Sublime-Plugin/issues/213, and, indeed, setting "typescript_tsdk" in Package settings in order to locate the ts lib has fixed this pb.
I spent quite an hour to investigate the issue, and I think most newcomers are likely to run into this (because they will probably install last version of ts globally, as I did), so it should be a good think :
- to document this more obviously (the setting is documented in the readme, but not the fact that it can solve this issue).
- and to inform the user if no tsconfig.json was found by the compiler

Research direction
Start with the README's documentation of the "typescript_tsdk" setting and trace how the plugin locates the TypeScript library and tsconfig.json. Done means documenting that setting as a remedy for this problem and informing the user when no tsconfig.json is found; no specific files or tests are named in the issue.
