Set up and use Atom as npm editor for `npm edit` command
Raw
atom-edit-command.md

Use -a flag to add project without opening new window:

npm config set editor 'atom -a'

Use npm edit . to open the current project (just a lightly better habit than calling atom -a directly in case changing editor).

Also allows adding, e.g., npm edit depOfCurrentPackage into Atom.

And it sets it as the editor for npm config edit (to open the npm config file in Atom).
