I'm very impressed with this editor. Really useful for some Ruby work I'm doing on Linux.

A few questions:

1. Can I open multiple Komodo windows?
   While working on one project I need to refer to another. Is there some way to launch a second Komodo window in which to view the other project? I know I can view multiple projects in the Projects tab but it would suit me better to have each in its own window.

I recently tried to add some Greek text in my perl scripts using Komodo IDE 4.0.2 on my Ubuntu 6.10/Xorg installation and I realized that, even though Komodo displays Greek text correctly, it transforms Greek letters into special western characters when they're typed in (but not when they're cut and pasted). Specifically, the following transformations are observed:

γ -> ŗ
ε -> ĩ
ζ -> ļ
κ -> ē
λ -> ģ
μ -> ŧ
ν -> Ŋ
ο -> ŋ
π -> Ā
χ -> Į
Σ -> Ŗ
Υ -> Ĩ
Φ -> Ļ

Hey,

I am using Komodo to teach perl programming to my high school students. Both the libcpp5 and libcpp3 versions of Komodo (3.5 and 4.0) work fine on our SuSE linux boxes, but they do not work properly on our ubuntu boxes (dapper and edgy).

The program starts up both nothing is ever displayed in the main panel of the application. Under SuSE when I start the application I see the "Start Page". Under Ubuntu I get all the menus, but I never arrive at the "Start Page".

I have tried using ldd to see if there are missing libraries, but everything looks fine.

I saw the announcement about the new version of Komodo and have been giving it a try. So far I am running into a brick wall trying to get debugging working all the way. I can tell that debugging is partially working by the fact that when I initiate the debug using the ?XDEBUG_SESSION_START=1 parameter I get asked if I want to debug by Komodo. Hitting yes, the Output windows of komodo quickly flash with content then reverts to blank.

In our code we have alot of libraries, and therefore uses a general include like this:

include("standardlibs.inc");

in this standardlibs.inc file, we include other files like utils.inc etc.

The functions in utils.inc do not appear in the autocomplete popup. Typing the start of an internal php-function works, but none of the functions in utils.inc pops up.

If I complete the whole functionname and add the "(" the popup for parameters comes up. But where is the selectbox where I can get all the functions named user_get* ?

hi,

i'm trying to get php debugging working on my ubuntu 6.10 test environment. i installed the apache2, php5, mysql5, and xdebug packages through apt-get. the actual LAMP environment works great and i've been using it for a while. i also think that xdebug works since both the xdebug client and komodo respond to urls with XDEBUG_SESSION_START=1 appended.

now i'm trying to get xdebug working with komodo. even though the preferences dialog says php debugging isn't configured, komodo properly receives the debugging session. however, the debugger doesn't stop at any breakpoints and just runs to completion. when i click on any of the debugger buttons, I get a debugger error message stating "Please correct your interpreter selection in preferences."

Hi,

I'm just trying Komodo Beta (Komodo Personal, version 4.0.0-beta3, build 273394, platform linux-libcpp5-x86). I created a new project to test drive Komodo and I had to add two include paths to the project properties (languages -> Perl) so the syntax check would work correctly. However, after exiting Komodo (saving the project) and starting it up again, those paths are gone from the properties. Seems something goes wrong when saving the project.

Is that a known bug?

I read from the documentation that PPM is installed by default with ActivePerl.
I understand any ActivePerl, even the linux distribution, am i wrong?

I cant run PPM.

I have installed ActivePerl DEB via dpkg... try Freespire and Ubuntu, in both i dont know how to run PPM if posible.

Hi all,

I got 3 questions, as an ActiveState newbie...

I installed the 4.0 beta release as I am thinking about buying the personal edition of the package. The install went well but when I start up I get the main window which is empty and the status field says "Ready". If I try to click on new file or open file then nothing happens. When I click on open file I get the open file dialog box but absolutely nothing happens when selecting a python file (for example). The main window remains empty.

On the main ActiveState webpage it says "Testers Wanted!" for the 4.0 release but I find no instructions on how these testers should report what they find and I find no place for those testers to report their findings, or a list of "known issues" that have been reported (so others don't have to report them as well). I checked your bugzilla database but found no specific forum for the 4.0 release. How does ActiveState want these testers to help out?
