[ANN] "language-livecode" 0.6.0 for Atom Editor

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Mike,
There's already a plugin for that, the STS MLXEditor plugin.  I'm using
that and it works great. Right now, I'm liking TextMate better than Atom
for editing stack scripts because it does the automatic indentation I
mentioned, but maybe there's a way a setting in Atom to control that?
Understand what you say about interface with git but I don't use git.

ATom does have a great advantage over Textmate because it can apparently
flag syntax errors but I need to figure out how to set up LC server to make
that work.
