### Archive extraction
An archive is available for people who don't want to install `atom` as root.
This version enables you to install multiple Atom versions in parallel. It has been built on Ubuntu 64-bit,

1. Install dependencies (on Ubuntu): `sudo apt install git gconf2 gconf-service libgtk2.0-0 libudev1 libgcrypt20
libnotify4 libxtst6 libnss3 python gvfs-bin xdg-utils libcap2`
2. Download `atom-amd64.tar.gz` from the [Atom releases page](https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/latest).
3. Run `tar xf atom-amd64.tar.gz` in the directory where you want to extract the Atom folder.
4. Launch Atom using the installed `atom` command from the newly extracted directory.
