I would like to use this package, but can't get it to work on my Mac with OS X Yosemite.

When Meteor tries to startup, it exits with the following message:

events.js:72 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event ^ Error: ENOTDIR, open '/Applications/Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar/package.json'
Meteor has exited with status code: 8

BTW: I also have some suggestions for improvement:

If you are developing for Cordova devices, then you need more command-line options than those provided by the settings dialog. You often use commands like

meteor run ios-device --mobile-server 192.168.2.102:3000
meteor run android-device --mobile-server 192.168.2.102:3000

because otherwise your devices can't connect to your server.

Secondly, I think the reset command is quite dangerous. I thought it would reset a stuck Meteor panel, but it actually did a project reset. This wipes the whole database, and in the case of Cordova it also causes Meteor to download all Cordova plugins, which can take ages if you have a lot of them. So I'd recommend to remove that, or at least ask the user if he's really sure to do such a wipe.

Sound like Atom has failed into installing one of its dependency. Plugins don't toy with /Applications/.... They are installed in ~/.atom/packages. Try to re-install Atom. We never know.
