Atom is a completely free, open-source, highly-extensible text editor based on Chromium and Node.js. It was created and is being actively developed by the GitHub team. It can be downloaded from the official Atom site. Atom's interface and functionality is very similar to Sublime Text, so it's a fairly painless transition if you have experience with it. Atom has an extremely flexible package system that allows customization of virtually everything about the editor.
Installation
Install Atom
- Go to the Atom website, download the setup file, and run it.
Install Packages
Syntax highlighting and snippets are provided by the language-papyrus package. Compilation is provided by the build and build-papyrus packages.
- In Atom, open the settings tab (File -> Settings, or Ctrl + Comma)
- Select the Install tab on the side
- Search for
language-papyrus, then click install on the package when the results appear - Repeat the previous step for
buildandbuild-papyrus - To see compiler errors inline with your code, also install the
linterpackage
If your Papyrus Compiler isn't in the default location (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 4\Papyrus Compiler\PapyrusCompiler.exe), then you must set it in the build-papyrus package settings:
- In Atom, open the settings tab (File -> Settings, or Ctrl + Comma)
- Select the Packages tab on the side
- Search for
build-papyrusor find it in the list, and click on Settings - Change the compiler path setting to your appropriate path
Usage
The build-papyrus package currently only supports using Papyrus project files to compile.
Make sure your Papyrus project file is in the base folder that you have open in Atom, and use Ctrl-Alt-B or F9 to trigger the build.
If you add, delete, or rename a project file, make sure you run the Build: Refresh Targets command in the palette (Ctrl-Shift-P).
Snippets are nearly identical to the Sublime Text plugin's snippets.
Recommended packages
To further enhance your experience with Atom, there are thousands of packages for Atom available. You can browse them within the editor itself, or on the official packages site. Here are a few worth taking a look at:
- minimap - Adds a minimap preview of your source code like Sublime Text does
- minimap-find-and-replace - Highlights all found text on the minimap when finding/replacing code
- minimap-selection - Highlights your text selection on the minimap
- highlight-selected - Highlights all occurrences of your text selection
- minimap-highlight-selected - Highlights all occurrences of your text selection on the minimap
- project-manager - Lets you save your Atom workspace as a project, and easily reopen them
- clipboard-plus - Keeps your clipboard history
