Took me a while to figure out that you can run any command in Atom.io, even if it’s not in the menu or toolbar:
This isn’t very clear in Atom, but what you’re after is this menu item: Toggle Command Palette
Mac OS X: Shift+Command+P:
Windows: Ctrl+Shift+P

Sometimes your Atom installation gets so unstable that the quickest solution is a reinstall. For that you need to get a list of user-installed packages, then re-install them.
On Windows your Atom Package Manager apm is here (but not in the path), where the first is version specific and the latter the most recent version:
%LOCALAPPDAT%\atom\app-1.18.0\resources\cli\apm.cmd
%LOCALAPPDATA%\atom\bin\apm.cmd
On Mac OS X, it is here and in the path:
/usr/local/bin/apm
/Applications/Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app/apm/node_modules/.bin/apm
Save your packages:
apm list --installed --bare > package-list.txt
Install packages:
apm install --packages-file package-list.txt
For my own memory, the settings folders:
%USERPROFILE%\.atom~/.atom–jeroen

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.

No more issue reporting: tohosokawa/rst-preview-pandoc: reStructuredText preview in Atom using Pandoc
This is a very useful Atom.io package, but it has one big issue: when you close a preview window then re-opening it, the settings are restored to the default -frst -thtml --webtex ones.
As I’m an Atom.io n00b, I need to dig into this another time.
Notes:
module.exports in the path pandocOpts.default.opts_ = atom.config.get 'rst-preview-pandoc.pandocOpts'.I want the defaults to include --standalone --toc --toc-depth=5 or at least --standalone --toc.
For now I’ve hardcoded them.

Paraphrased Steps (thanks guy038); Screenshots below.
Settings -> Style Configurator…Style configurator dialog, choose the Global Styles under LanguageStyle, select the Default Style (this won’t work for Global Override unless you have that one override everything)Font Style area, you can select your favourite Font name and/or its Size and apearance (Bold, Italic, Underscore)Save & Close when you like the new font settings.The cool thing is that if you have a file open, you will immediately see the effects even before pressing Save & Close.

I’ve not tracked down the cause yet, but these seem to be related:
I’ve “fixed” 4. by doing this as recommended at osx – Copy and Cut sometimes don’t work – Ask Different:
launchctl list | grep com.apple.pboardIf the pboard daemon is running, then stop and start it. If it’s not running, start it:
launchctl stop com.apple.pboard launchctl start com.apple.pboard
Now 4. works again if I restart each application, 6. still works, but these applications still cannot copy/paste to 1. 2. and 3.
What does work is a full reboot, but that takes a while (especially Chrome re-loading lots of Windows: I need to get more organised here).
It might be that I need to restart each application in 6.
Grrr…..

Atom is a great editor, but printing from it is still lacking, even though the issue has been opened again.
There is export-html, but it only prints the current source code, not the built-in Markdown Preview or add-on reStructuredText Preview Pandoc packages “Toggle Preview” views.
By name print-atom looks promising, but contrary to the advertised “Print current atom window using print dialog”, it prints the whole Atom UI, which is of no use at all.
The little red icon isn’t an adornment. Even though it doesn’t look like a button: It’s clickable!
Then there is broadcast which at first only worked for me in 1.6.2 but not in 1.7.2. I even removed the whole ~/.atom directory to get it working: to no avail. It finally occurred to me that in the lower right there was a tiny red icon (which was blue in 1.6.2).
Below is the process to fix broadcast, and after that you can live-view from your web browser through http://localhost:8000 either of the rendered source text in the Atom editor, or the Preview pane in the Atom editor.
Even though hardly documented, these are the broadcast settings:
Only enable “Broadcast To Others” if you want to access port 8000 from another machine.
As soon as you click it you see this in the right pane:

I needed a second instance of Atom to run on a second monitor:
open -n /Applications/Atom.app
Or even shorter:
open -na Atom
I got there via: Launch & Run Multiple Instances of Any Application in Mac OS X
The reason is that searching for Mac OS X start second Atom instance does not reveal satisfactory results, as the tips in these links all fail:

One of the things I missed in the Atom editor is a keyboard macro recording/playback.
I tried atom-keyboard-macros but it doesn’t work reliably.
Not sure where it fails as the failure patterns are inconclusive.
Anyone having a better experience?
