Better snippet description in toolbox

Hi,
for Tcl I use a LOT of snippets (because that language is so verbose). I don't want to use the mouse most of the time, so I use them as abbreviations (Ctrl-T). Naturally, abbrevs should be short, so I have "s", "se", "sa", "sb", "sg" etc. as snippet names, which makes it very quick to use them... as long as I remember what "se" stands for :-)

Sometimes when I need a less frequently used snippet, I don't remember that, so I open the toolbox and want to select the appropriate snippet there. Now the problem shows up: In the list I see all the short abbrevs, and nothing else.

ppm install doesn't recognize File::Glob::Windows version

Intalling Padre 0.48 on perl 5.8.825:

Makefile.pl has:

ppm list shows:
? File-Glob-Windows ? 0.1.3 ? 3 ? 13 KB ? site

ppm install fails with:

ppm install failed: Can't find any package that provides File::Glob::Windows version 0.1 for Padre

Available versions of File-Glob-Windows are 0.1.3 and 0.1.4

Any ideas what's happening?

thanks

Quirk in coloring of HTML code

I've set all font and syntax coloring in HTML to black. Everything is fine, except for the following issue. The text within quotes (below) always shows up as BLUE. This always occurs in HTML.

I've been working on it, but can't discover a solution. Wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

...div style = "margin-left: .1in"...
...  h1 style = "text-align: center">Student Catalog...
...  h2 style = "text-align: center"> ...

Thanks for Komodo Edit. Love the product.

Windows Komodo With Ubuntu Remote Debugging

I have Komodo 5.2 running on XP and Ruby on Ubuntu. I want to set-up remote debugging.

The Ruby debugging help page says to go to the Komodo Remote Debugging Page ( http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/Komodo/RemoteDebugging )and install the sofwate appropriate for my applicaiton. I don't see Ruby anywhere.

Is it possible to remotely debug Ruby on Ubuntu while using Komodo on Windows?

Thanks,
Adam

PerlTray exhibits seemingly random behaviour!

I've written a number of small PerlTray applications which generally behave themselves, but occasionally I see random errors like:

1. Right click on the tray icon and it exits silently (with no error - these are redirected to MsgBox's so would be visible) instead of popping a menu.

2. Right click on the tray icon and random elements are added into the menu (array references, garbled text, etc).

3. Sometimes when running the application I'll get a random "modification of scalar value expected" or similar message appear. Run the App again and it won't happen...?

Hi,

I tried to start the perlNET sample HelloWorld.pl with the interpreter without compilation.

PUTS creates widget instead of outputing a string

PUTS creates widget instead of outputting a string. I have a script with:
puts "$tcl_platform(os)"
I have also tried it without the quotes.
All I get is a box titled SCRIPTNAME (eg pltfrm1), see attached file.
How do I correct this?
