There is no one command that does this by default, but you can easily replicate this functionality through Komodo macros, see below:

Create a new macro in your toolbox, labeled "duplicate Line" or similar, add the following Javascript code:

// Macro recorded on Tue Jan 30 2007 18?? GMT-0800 (PST)
komodo.assertMacroVersion(2);
if (komodo.view) { komodo.view.setFocus() };
// Remove any current selection
var currentPos = komodo.editor.currentPos;
komodo.editor.setSel(currentPos, currentPos);
komodo.doCommand('cmd_copy');
komodo.doCommand('cmd_paste');

Then, in the macro properties form, go the "Key Binding" tab and in the "New Key Sequence" press Ctrl-D, then click on the "Add" button to assign the keybinding.

Close the macro, go back to your editing file and try using Ctrl-D.

Note: To create similar macros yourself, take advantage of the Macro recording tools:

• Tools->Macros->Start Recording
• Go to your editor, hit Ctrl-C (copy) then hit Ctrl-V (paste)
• Tools->Macros->Stop Recording
• Tools->Macros->Save To Toolbox

For further macro information, check out the Macro API documentation in Komodo's internal help.

Hope this helps,
Todd

Todd, you're the man. That worked great, thanks!

Note that Ctrl+C if there is no selection copies the current line. I tend to do Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V to duplicate lines (making sure I have no selection first).

It's a controversial feature, FWIW. =)

komodo.doCommand('cmd_end')

komodo.doCommand('cmd_linePrevious')

komodo.doCommand('cmd_end')
komodo.doCommand('cmd_selectHome')
komodo.doCommand('cmd_selectHome')
new_selection = komodo.interpolate('%s');

komodo.doCommand('cmd_lineNext')

var pos = ke.currentPos;
ke.insertText(pos,new_selection);


ke.gotoPos(savePos);

Even if a copy/paste would do the thing, i found it really helpful.
I was using Notepad++ until yesterday, i do try to use Komodo now and it was a missing feature for me.

The version not using clipboard is perfect for me, thank you very much

Enhance KomodoEdit with MoreKomodo

(this is tested on Komodo Edit 4.2.1)

komodo.assertMacroVersion(2);
if (komodo.view) { komodo.view.setFocus() };
var ke = komodo.editor;
ke.lineDuplicate();

Does anyone want this duplicate line command to be enabled and assigned by default in Komodo? If so, to what key binding (Ctrl-D, Cmd-D)?

If enough people want it, then we'll turn it on by default. Appreciate your input.

Thanks,
Todd

Yes!
Cmd-D to use with Cmd-E (my personalization) to delete a Line

Duplicate line and the move line up and down were the things I missed the most when switched from notepad++
There it was Ctrl+D

I wrote this tiny macro that replicates the current line or selection, see more here:

looks like it could be optimized

have fun

Update: The duplicate line command has been added to Komodo 4.4, though it does not have an assigned keybinding by default. You can search for the command in Komodo's "Editor->Key binding" preferences and assign whatever keys you like.

I opened an enhancement request (bug 78819) to make it duplicate the current line OR the currently selected text (if there is any).
