Seems like a bug, never experienced this myself though.

I'm currently using nemiver and atom-gdb to set breakpoints from within Atom and launch nemiver. But you're right: A great integrated debugger would be awesome :)

This works with atom-racer: Ctrl+Shift+P and type "racer find definition"

Nice, unfortunately it works only for my methods and not for std.

Oh, you right, I got wrong path to Cargo so it didn't work out of box but still it is not like you have it in IDE and you don't see errors as you type but you need to save.

Cool, thanks!
I will try to give another chance to Rust in half year and see if it improved.
But I would suggest to look at Swift SourceKit https://github.com/apple/swift/tree/master/tools/SourceKit or OmniSharp http://www.omnisharp.net/ SourceKit provides really nice Swift support in Xcode. If you can deliver same thing built on top of VSCode, Intellij IDEA with integrated debugger, I am sold.
