May I ask why you undid my change. Atom uses C++ and I referred to a link which shows this.

There is no reference that the Atom uses C++. You linked to a pullrequest which optimize memory usage, nothing to do with C++. Files changed by the pullrequest are written both in JavaScript and CoffeScript. Filip Jirsák (talk) 14:31, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You didn't look well enough: "As part of this effort, we have rewritten the Patch in C++ and with a more compact representation, in order to further reduce Atom's memory consumption when editing large files."
Again, please look at the source and tell me, this is not C++! https://github.com/atom-archive/atom-patch/pull/12 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.239.128.236 (talk) 18:08, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I looked good. In your first link there was no C++ code. Your second try is C++ code, but it is not Atom editor source code. Atom editor source code is in atom/atom repo. Pull requests aren't helpful for determining in which language is written some program. Useful places are presentation pages (for example Atom's homepage), documentation, announcements or source code repository. Greeting Filip Jirsák (talk) 19:57, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Then again, look at my first link, the last sentence. Atom editor is using atom patch: "As part of this effort, we have rewritten the Patch in C++ and with a more compact representation, in order to further reduce Atom's memory consumption when editing large files." There is no better proof than pull request. In fact, I have this from an non-english online media. --79.239.128.236 (talk) 20:20, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Probably you should better look at the Atom source code. Filip Jirsák (talk) 20:26, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Atom 1.14 announcement: "A fundamental component of the text editor called the display layer has been redesigned to rely on a new data structure that is implemented in C++." --79.239.128.236 (talk) 20:31, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, Atom depends on the number of components. Many of them are written in C++. But Atom itself is written in the web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). Filip Jirsák (talk) 20:41, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is a "fundamental component of the text editor"! And this is why it is called atom-patch and why the announcement mentions this. Sorry, but guys like you seem to think, they are representing the truth. Knowing it better than the official atom website and atom devs. People like you are giving wikipedia a bad reputation and keeping guys away. --79.239.128.236 (talk) 20:51, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
