Atom

At GitHub, we're building the text editor we've always wanted. A tool you can customize to do anything, but also use productively on the first day without ever touching a config file. Atom is modern, approachable, and hackable to the core. We can't wait to see what you build with it.

What is new in this release:

• Fix a problem with undoing multiple changes at the same time
• Quote spaces in paths on Win cmd line
• Ensure atom.cmd with --wait returns exit code of 0 for git commit usage
• Ensure Windows Bash script works on all versions

What is new in version 1.3b6:

• Fixed an issue scrolling right when the first line is the longest in the file.

What is new in version 1.0.8:

What is new in version 0.190.0:

• You can now launch Atom in 1.0 API preview mode. Run atom with the -1 or --one command line flag to start Atom with all the deprecated APIs removed. This is a great way to test if your packages are 1.0 compatible before 1.0 is released. You can also launch a window in API preview mode using the application:open-api-preview command available from the command palette.
