I ran into this same error. I found the error trying to use Atom's built in find and replace.

To workaround this, for now, I commented out the keymap for Platformio-IDE that is throwing the error.

Then restarted Atom and there is no longer an error. However now there is no shortcut to focus the terminal which I can live with. But others may not in their workflow perhaps. But it is at least a temporary fix. Another option is to just change the keymap to something else.

This isn't a keymap issue; if you attempt to focus the terminal when none are open, this error is thrown.

[DroidPulkit]

True but it need to be caught so the error doesn't come or open the terminal in case it is already not opened

Please retest again with platformio-atom-ide-terminal 2.9.0 is using node-pty-prebuilt instead unmaintained and outdated pty.js
