-## atom
-
-This plugin makes "at" a useful function for invoking the Atom Editor.
-
-Originally by Github user [aforty](https://github.com/aforty) for OSX, modified to alias 'at' to 'atom' for Linux, since atom already works on the terminal for Linux, and calling 'at' in a non-OSX environment should still work.
-
-### Requirements
-
- * [Atom](https://atom.io/)
-
-### Usage
-
- * If `at` command is called without an argument, launch Atom
-
- * If `at` is passed a directory, open it in Atom
-
- * If `at` is passed a file, open it in Atom
-
-### Examples
-
- * Open the current dir in atom: `at .`
- * Open another dir in atom: `at path/to/folder`
- * Open a file: `at filename.extension`
