Rather than using order to specify item precedence, we now construct a set of menu items for each element traversing upward from the target. When merging items for a given element, we pass the specificity to the merge function, which uses it to decide whether or not to clobber existing items. When assembling the overall menu, we don’t ever clobber to ensure that items added for elements closer to the target always win over items matching further up the tree.
Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on atom-shell, and based on everything we love about our favorite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration.
