github – Open Atom editor from command line – Stack Overflow
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/11/17
I have the Atom editor and was wondering how you can open a file or folder from the terminal in Atom. I am using a Mac. I am looking for a way to do this: atom . (opens folder) atom file.js (
The answer to it isn’t any good any more (since then, Atom has evolved), but this comment works splendid:
I solved the issue by choosing “Install Shell Commands” under the “Atom” menu.
It will add a script in /usr/local/bin/atom that starts Atom with the parameters you entered.
