Atom integration

[amilajack]

Is it possible that this package could provide possible Atom integration?

[hharnisc]

OMG yes!

Or any electron app integration for that matter.

This would actually be amazing.

Aside from other issues, one problem with trying to do this is that Atom is using an old version of electron v0.37.8 and hyperterm is using v1.2.5. And unfortunately the Atom devs apparently have no plans to move to v1.x in the near future since it's not a high priority issue.

Possible naive solution could be to write a babel that could transform the api calls to an abstraction layer. Also here's a list of most of the api changes. Seems manageable.

Doesnt seem like too many changes

Update; There is a pull request from the atom devs to upgrade electron: atom/atom#12300

[tad-lispy]

And now it's merged :D

Any progress on this now that Electron is updated in Atom?
