How do I modify JS Beautify formatter in Komodo IDE? I would like to have my indents be 2 line spaces. I tried to find how to call a command line but no dice. Maybe I did not look hard enough.

Hello All:

I recently Switched from UltraEdit to KE on my mac and I used to be able to do a find/replace of ^t to search out all the tabs in a flat file .txt.

How can I do that in Komodo? ON the find/replace dialog box that came up, I saw the arrow for more options but the extra whitespace one did not work for me.

Thanks for any help or advice on this,

Paul

Is there any books to buy or ScreenCast tutorials to learn Komodo Edit? I don't have the IDE version, but, so far I really enjoy the UI of Komodo Edit for XHTML, CSS, PHP and RORs. There is a lot of stuff in Komodo Edit, I don't want to fiddle around with clicking different things to see what it can do. I would like to streamline my education on this Open Source text editor.

Thank you.

There are two features lost in the transition from Komodo version 4.* to 5.0 and that are still missing:

1) The wrapping of custom toolbars on a new row when the window is not width enough to contain all opened toolbars entirely.

2) The custom menus (defined in toolbox and projects) under Mac OS X that still do not work any more in version 5.1.

Are there plans to "restore" these features... or perhaps, suggestions for workarounds?

Thanks,

Philippe

Hello All:

Each time I open a file to edit, I make a back up of the file just in case by doing save as... then save it as filname.070809.bak with the date in it.

Is there a way to automate this?

I don't know much about macros or how to use them so bear with me on this if this is a simple task.

Thanks for any advice or help,

When using a dark colour scheme in Komodo IDE 5.1.3 or 5.1.4 on Mac OS X, you cannot see the mouse when it is over the editing window. It is there but as black-on-black. Note I am not talking about the caret for editing, but the mouse pointer. This happens with the out of the box Dark theme. Is this a bug or is there a setting I am missing to fix the colour.

Thanks

I like everything else about developing in Python with Komodo but...I am being driven INSANE by having to constantly switch to the watch tab and type str(variablename). I use numpy a lot, and values are thrashing between python types and numpy types quite often, and it is absolutely aggravating that the "value" tab on the local debugger window provides no useful information. Practically all properly behaved Python objects have a useful description provided by the str() function. This is the information that developers WANT in the value tab. Is there anyway to add this to the interface?

Hello All:

As I was coding the other day I noticed something weird and I was not sure if it was me or not.

I was trying to collapse the lines on an (X)HTML document to see where the missing tag might have been. It was then that I noticed that ti collapsed the whole document with a solid line right up against to the line I was writing.

I thought that I must have missed something somewhere so I kept going back and forth over the code. I removed most of the document until I was down to a simple table framework. One table, One table row, and two table data's.

My question is....

Is it possible to debug Tcl code in an embedded application in Komodo?

I'm using AOLServer, which has an embedded Tcl interpreter, and thus I can't run the "dbgp_tcldebug" application that your docs want me to:
http://docs.activestate.com/komodo/5.1/debugtcl.html#debugtcl_top

However, the tcldebugger in tdk5 uses a tcl source code method of debugging, though this clashes with aolserver and only partially works, and this method:

package require tcldebugger_attach
set host localhost
set port 9000
debugger_init $host $port

won't connect successfully to Komodo.

Long time eclipse (under freebsd) user. Always wanted to try Komodo but couldnt until recently when I acquired a new mac laptop.

My first impression is I like it. Its fast, faster than eclipse for sure. And it has a lot of nice things.

Here are my configuration questions.
