Giving up on the Atom text editor

They have not worked out a very good install procedure for Red Hat, and I find it is hackable, meaning full of bloat and complexity.  I stick with Geany.

The linux load package process still confuses.  Hopefully the five different methods for install will converge to one protocol, perhaps snap.If one is developing, get a resonable, unchanging text editor designed for the project and leave it at that.  Adding flexibility to test editors does  little good since, in the end, we are all still dealing with ascii strings.

A Plain Text Editor
Plain Text files
That's right, if you're writer on a budget, you don't need to spend any money buying expensive writing software or apps. Instead, you can use the text editor that comes free with your operating system.
Just open up Notepad on Windows or TextEdit on a Mac. I like plain text editors for writing something short quickly and easily, without thinking much about it. I wrote a blog post about the benefits of using plain text editors as writing software.
Use for: writing whatever, wherever
