atom editor, has anyone used it?

Loaded up atom onto the box, and started looking for syntax highlighting for Propeller. None found. Before I start to reinvent the wheel for this editor, I wonder if anyone has come across one for the prop. Started to play around with this, but looks like a significant learning curve. Regexes don't bother me, bit rusty, used them heavily years ago when automating system builds using perl. Just looks like a lot to tie together for a working highlighter in atom.

Yes, I've been using it lately, mainly because it is open source plus I can have multiple projects open. I did adapt a .cson grammar for Tachyon for it which is in my Tachyon/more/tools folder but I've got a couple of different versions around so I need to polish them a bit yet. I have used medit and sublime as well as other editors but Atom seems to tick the boxes for me.
