This module may break soon

A kind soul (@logicalparadox) has allowed us to take over the electron package name on npm, and we are beginning the process of publishing electron-prebuilt and electron in tandem for a while.

If a user installs the new electron, this package in its current form will not be able to detect that, because it's looking for -prebuilt in the path name:

module.exports = process.defaultApp || /[\\/]electron-prebuilt[\\/]/.test(process.execPath);

Context: electron-userland/electron-prebuilt#160

Thank you for the notice @zeke. We was planning to change the check and use an env variable.
We are discussing it here and here

I did a PR on electron-prebuilt to make it set such variable, so that we can check it.

This should solve the name change problem.

cc @kevinsawicki who suggested there might be a baked-in way to do this already.
