GitHub's Atom: Yet Another Text Editor.

from the probably-better-than-notepad dept.

Anonymous Coward writes "GitHub's Atom, a new text editor blending C++ and web technologies, is now being released as a limited beta. The new editor, which claims to have partial TextMate support, is extensible with the help of a centralized add-on manger (the same way Eclipse does) and is heavily integrated with the github platform. The final licence is not known at the moment, but the project already makes use of over 80 open source software packages.

Access to the beta is currently "invite only"."

    +1 to this. I've found Notepad++ to be everything I need and a whole lot more. My only complaint has been the automatic indentation while editing certain programming files. For examine it would convert spaces to tabs and vice versa, so when I go to indent to a new level I'd have to respace each line, replacing autogenerated tabs on some but not others.

    No big deal once I figured out how to adjust those options.
