What editor were you using previously, and what in Atom made you switch over?

I was using Aquamacs Emacs editor. I tend to like simple editors for coding at home. I use IntelliJ and VisualStudio for my day work. One major feature I enjoy is the multiple selections hotkey. I've been making some level designs and editing a 20x20 array can be slow.
That would've been very possible in Emacs. Oh well. http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Rec...
