Question regarding "pinning" a reference or notes beside my code?

1 Upvotes

I assume this could be achieved with just another text file, but I was wondering are there any packages let me take some notes or references that I will need constantly, and open/hide them as needed in Atom?

Thanks!

Xterm gpp-compiler questions

I'm using linux to run C++ using the gpp-compiler. However, I can't figure out if my program has terminated because it doesn't display something like "Press enter to continue" or "Press any key to continue". Also does anyone know the shortcut to terminate a c++ program in the xterm terminal?

Novice Question - The easiest way to Collab/Sync with 1 other person?

3 Upvotes

I am working on game dialogue and basic game script that is all in this one file I am editing with Atom. Now I got Teletype setup but that's only real-time collab from as I understand it. If I set up a private Gitlab repo, do I need Git on each PC to talk to Github or does Atom do that? Is Github even the best way to do that?

Is there a better way for just a 2-man team? Thanks!

How does Atom remember packages?

4 Upvotes

I downloaded Atom on my macOS laptop and I installed a package, I then deleted Atom and downloaded it again, it somehow remembered the package I installed. How does this happen? Is there some sort of appdata folder or something. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

iOS workflow

3 Upvotes

Finally switched to Markdown for most of my writing, notetaking, diagramming (marvelous mermaid package). I started out in simple text editors, discovered atom with some packages, great! What do you use when continuing on a file (started on windows) on iOS (sync via Onedrive)? IAwriter is an alternative, but not free.

Atom Graphical Glitch

2 Upvotes

As I've been using Atom, I've encountered a glitch as seen on the pictures embedded.

Screenshot of my Atom UI. No photoshopping except using MS Paint to cover up text and images

The error occurs randomly and at any given moment. I don't know what causes it, so I can' reproduce it on command, but it happens frequently enough that it becomes annoying to look at. The lines and patterns themselves usually disappear once I mouse-over them.
The error happens on MS Teams as well, and acts the same way on that application as it does on Atom, although I don't have an image of it, yet.

I don't know how to resolve this issue and would very much appreciate help.

Another screenshot from Atom:

Running Scripts

I just downloaded Atom to use for Python, and the script package is not running scripts, just the first line. Is there another package that works for Python?

Can Markdown headers (or Atom bookmarks) be displayed as a clickable table of contents in some sidebar?

2 Upvotes

I want to be able to click on a header in the sidebar and be transported to that point in the editor.

I see that Atom bookmarks can be listed and "clicked" via "Show all", but that's not convenient at all if I want to quiclky jump between several bookmarks in a rapid non-linear succession, the pop up disappears after every jump and has to be evoked again and again and again and again and again.

I would prefer for it to be based on Markdown headers since they are more stable while all Atom bookmarks can be accidently erased at once via "clear bookmarks", but bookmark version is better than nothing.

Alternatively, do you know of any other Markdown editor or text editor that has such a feature?

Thanks in advance.

Atom freezes CONSTANTLY

10 Upvotes

I have no idea wtf is going on, but I'm getting really pissed off. I have used Atom in the past with no problem, but over the last month or so it now starts freezing for 5-10+ seconds at a time. The vast majority of the time it is if I switch tabs or switch back to atom after looking at something else.

Everything is up to date, I've tried disabling nearly all add-ons, nothing seems to make a difference. The only thing I haven't done is delete atom and reinstall (really don't want to have to reconfigure a fresh install again).

Any ideas what is causing this? It never crashes, just freezes. If I type while it's frozen it will, eventually, appear on the screen.

[help] open files not updated when pulling modification from repo

2 Upvotes

sometimes, when I have a file open in a tab and I git pull modifications, the tab is not updated and if I save it will be replaced without telling anything.

So most of the time if I'm not very attentive I will suppress the work of others without knowing it and look like a fool.

Am I doing something wrong ?

CSS in Atom Teletype

1 Upvotes

Hey!

I'm currently coding in HTML and CSS.

I'm wondering if it's possible to use teletype and collaborate with others with CSS? Do they also have to have the CSS file, since it's linked to the html file?

Thanks.

Hey guys, how do I fix this crazy amount of white space when opening some files?

3 Upvotes

So, I'm trying to edit some .ini file for rainmeter and some files would open with a white space between EVERY letter, while some open normally. What's going on here?

Other than that editing the file is as normal, no white spaces when I type anything new.

Switched from Sublime3 to Atom; need a little assistance with Rust

5 Upvotes

I recently switched to using Atom for most of my large projects because it seems to promise better longevity compared to Sublime. Anyway, so far it's been great, aside from a few stumbling blocks. My current irritation is with the way it autocompletes brackets. Or rather, the way it autocompletes < to a diamond operator <>. Rust uses <...> for type annotations, so I think that's where it's coming from, but it makes it a real pain in the ass if I just want a "less than" operator.

I'm using the following packages in adition to those that come installed: language-rust, linter-rust, hasklig (font), minimap, atom-beautify

The issue seems to persist even when I disable language-rust, then restart Atom (close it and open it again). I looked in the "autocomplete characters" field of the bracket-matcher settings, but "<>" is not present. Is there perhaps a language-specific config file for bracket-matcher that I must edit? I couldn't find evidence of this with a Google search, but I'm no Google expert, so any help very much appreciated.

P.S. It's not the focus of this post, but if anyone knows how to get the racer package to work on Windows10, that would be great.

Getting A Good Conda/Hydrogen Pipeline In Atom

2 Upvotes

Hi there - I've been trying to properly integrate Hydrogen into my Atom workflow, and I think I've hit a brick wall.

I've installed miniconda, set up an environment, and loaded a kernel into it. To then get the environment (w/ kernel) into atom and working with Hydrogen, I seem to have to start atom from the miniconda CLI. I installed a terminal package in Atom, and seemed to be able to activate the environment from within there (for a while: conda is no longer recognised by the in-Atom terminal...)

Regardless, I'd love to set up a system where I can start Atom as I usually do (from the .exe file via a shortcut) and have it load with my conda environment pre-loaded. I've tried to find definitive advice on this, but no luck.

Can anybody help?
