<p dir="auto">Previously if you were at the terminal and typed "atom" it opened the current directory in atom. As of a recent release, it now opens an empty window. To achieve the same result as before one must now type "atom .". I understand making changes and that relearning will be required, but it does seem like consistency across github CLI's should be important. GitHub for Mac opens the current directory if you simply type "github". This means one github product requires "." for the current directory and another does not. Now I'm left in a state of never getting it right for either of them. :)</p>
<p dir="auto">Recently atom has changed to require <code class="notranslate">atom .</code> instead of just <code class="notranslate">atom</code> to open the working directory. This has been a really frustrating change. How do I make atom open the working directory without the <code class="notranslate">.</code> argument?</p>
