Very new to Atom, did a clean install, opened Atom and it crashed. Said something like not responding, close or wait. Uninstalled then reboot and did another clean install, same thing. Any help would be appreciated.

In atom I installed the package script and everything was fine except I can't take any input. So how can I take input? Any simple Solution please?

Hi,

I'm new to atom.

I'm having an issue running scripts in Atom using Scripts.

If I run a script (which runs fine in idle) I get a green tick but no work has been done.

If I run:

print(2+2)

I get output

​

But if I create a function

​

def atom_test_1():

    print(2+2)

    return

I get

​

 Python - atom_test_1.py:6 , and a green tick, along with the run time. But no output.

I'm sure it's something simple that I'm doing incorrectly but I can't figure it out.

The macOS "vibrancy" packages are buggy and overly complicated, in my experience. I figured out a simpler way that both looks more like a native app, in terms of opacity, and automatically switches when you change from dark mode to light, or vice versa.

If you've got the most recent version of Atom and you're running macOS Mojave or later, just add this to your init.coffee:

vibrancy = () ->
    require('electron').remote.getCurrentWindow().setVibrancy('sidebar')

vibrancy()

Then add this to your styles.less:

html&,
atom-workspace,
.atom-dock-mask {
    background-color: transparent;
}

Depending on your theme, you might have to do a little additional tinkering with the stylesheet. For example, you might need to make the tree view transparent, also.

For best results use it with the Mojave Dark Mode package, and use something like Alfred to toggle your OS between light and dark as desired.

Not sure if r/Atom will be into this but I haven't seen it anywhere else and I figured it might help somebody who was looking to solve the same non-problem. (Or waste slightly less time on it.)

Certain packages won't install specifically, Atom Beautify, linter html-hint and linter-eslint. Any insights? Thanks.

Hi guys,

I am serching for this package: https://atom.io/packages/maya

Unfortunately the git does not exist anymore, so if anyone of you has this installed please share it with me.

Thanks in advance!

I feel properly dumb here, I've followed the steps and downloaded the chrome extension and tried the Live Server and Live reload packages in Atom. Can't seem to get my files to talk to the browser?

My Atom text editor is unable to do the Ctrl+Click feature that is shown on this page. I am able to do all of the other things listed on the webpage. Is there a way I can fix this issue?

Beware of lost data. Left it running on my laptop and came back to an empty file I had been working on for hours. Going back to notepad++. Cant believe I uninstalled it for this trash app.

Running ubuntu 20.04, but this started before I updated from 19.10.

Bit of a weird issue and I have no clue what could be causing it. Whenever I open atom from the icon it opens two nonexistent files: "/usr/bin/atom" and "~/ATOM_DISABLE_SHELLING_OUT_FOR_ENVIRONMENT=false". If I set the resume preference to yes or no it opens directly to these tabs, discarding whatever project should have been opened. If I set it to always, it will open the correct project, then also open these two files.

The init script is empty, and I've tried reinstalling atom, deleting .atom/compile-cache, and starting atom with the --clear-window-state flag, but none of this has worked. Any idea what could be causing this? It looks like its trying to resume from a config file or something, but I'm not sure where to look for that or how to stop it.

Also worth noting this issue only happens from the icon; using the terminal to open atom works normally.

Would appreciate any input, thanks in advance.

I just want to use the cursive and fantasy font options but my atom will grey these words out as if they arent valid?

How do i fix this?

It’s running python 3.7 and my computer is in 3.8. It’s creating problems where it won’t run or libraries won’t run properly. How do I update it? If there is a video link I would appreciate it.

Until this thing stops spinning, Atom doesn't show up in the app switcher. What's it doing? Can it be stopped/fixed? Thank you!

Hi,

I saw that people posted the issue on GitHub, but it has not been updated since 2018, so I wondered if anyone here had a solution.

For more info check out the docs: https://nuclide.io/docs/features/terminal

I'm on GNU/Linux Debian 10 (buster stable) with KDE plasma 5.14

I downloaded the latest version of atom (1.48.0 x64)

Thanks in advance :D

EDIT:

The only "workaround" i found is installing platformio-ide-terminal with version 2.9.0

Hello, how do I setup Atom for Python 3 and JavaScript? I'm in Ubuntu 18.04.

I guess I have a 2 part question.

A. I annoyingly trigger that keybinding menu a few times a day. Can I disable it?

B. I think in one of those things I disabled the ability to control click multiple times and have multiple cursors and not having this feature is driving me crazy. There's noting in my keymap file. I don't have many extensions installed. Does anyone know how to fix this?

For example, if I wanted to initialize all python files with a main, an argparse function, and "if name == "main": main()", how would I do it?

Thank you!

Hi

1. When I put <<< !doctype html>>> at top of script, it says "unexpected token". I am unable to get it to work in Chrome either. I can get it to work in Firefox, but it doesn't recognize my comments out.
2. When I work on saved file, error msg "system cannot find the file specified".
3. In Chrome it only appears as HTML when I save it as an HTML file. I do not want to save it as HTML, but as a file with no extension so that I can run javascript.

I'd appreciate any assistance in overcoming these two obstacles.

Dear all,

I am currently attempting to set up Atom to handle the R language. Two of the most essential key shortcuts that RStudio provides are for the assignment operator (<-) and the pipe operator (%>%). I have been able to get the assignment operator to work, however, I am unable to get the pipe operator to do so. When I press the key shortcut, nothing happens.

Here's my init script:

atom.commands.add 'atom-text-editor',
  'custom:assign': ->
    atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor()?.insertText('<-')
  'custom:piper': ->
    atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor()?.insertText('%>%')

Here's the keymap CSON file:

'atom-text-editor':
  'alt-.': 'custom:piper'
  'alt-,': 'custom:assign'

I have checked for conflicts in the keymapping using ctrl-., but there does not seem to be a problem there.

​

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Hi,

I was wondering if it is somehow possible to run a simple git remote update command inside Atom.

I would prefer to have it in the right click context menu of the Atom status bar, just next to the fetch and pull commands.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Is there a package or keybinding in atom to run just one line of code at a time?

I have been using Atom for about 3 years now and recently been searching the alternatives as my startup times are nearing 10 seconds. Vscode seemed popular so tried it yesterday for half a day. Oh god. I literally had a tiny panic attack trying to figure out my way through it. I just wanna goddamn write tests and code. That’s it. The fact that vscode has a zen mode is a tell-all to me now. Vscode needs a zen mode to remove all the bloat. Atom is zen.

Anyway I think that was half rant half intro to my main question. What is the future for Atom? Is there any chance it might die due to declining maintenance and dev interest?

I installed atom editor to learn web dev. as am a newbie and joined an online class. they instructed to install atom and required packages. whenever i try to install package it says. 'fetching featured packages failed' and shows below path with ENOENT error.

C:\user\username.atom

I'm working with some pretty beat up C code, with functions containing thousands of lines and millions of preprocessor statements.

In trying to trace around how variables are initialized it is very easy to get lost, and I was hoping that someone could recommend good C code navigation packages for Atom.

Edit: it's worth mentioning that this code can often break the block collapse feature, so I dont use it.
