Hi, I was trying to install Juno, and when I opened the REPL with Packages \> Julia \> Open Console pressing `Enter` to start a Julia session, I got the following error message:

Press Enter to start Julia.  
Starting Julia…  
ERROR: LoadError: ArgumentError: Module Atom not found in current path.  
Run `Pkg.add("Atom")` to install the Atom package.  
Stacktrace:

Please, could somebody help to fix it?

Thanks

You first need to install Atom in Julia. In the Julia REPL, run `Pkg.add("Atom")` like the error says.
