I have no way of knowing if the update is actually working, if it is done, or anything else of the sort. It is not until I close and restart Atom that it tells me I am using a new version.\r\n\r\nA significant improvement to this would be to do one of the following:\r\n\r\n1) Emulate how GitHub for Windows works--silently download the update and prompt the user to install it at their convenience\r\n\r\n2) Keep the manual update process but give more information during the process such as % downloaded, % installed, prompt to reopen when done (if necessary), etc.\r\n\r\n3) Include Atom updates within the package/theme update system so that you are automatically notified of an update and are provided some GUI information\r\n\r\nMy vote would probably go with option 1. It's automated and non-intrusive."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/comments/74344883","html_url":"https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/5554#issuecomment-74344883","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/5554","id":74344883,"user":{"login":"paulcbetts","id":1396,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1396?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts","html_url":"https://github.com/paulcbetts","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-02-13T23:21:39Z","updated_at":"2015-02-13T23:21:39Z","body":"> Why aren't we doing this sort of auto update-in-the-background workflow for atom?
