How can I open the Atom editor from the command line in OS X?

by

With the Atom editor open, in the menu bar:

Click Atom → Install Shell Commands

atom-add-shell-commands

You should expect to see:

atom-commands-installed

Potentially restart your terminal (I did it just out of habit and am not sure if you need to).
