Komodo Edit 7.0.0 Beta 1 Build 8990

Windows, Mac, Linux? Yes. PHP, Python, Ruby, JavaScript, Perl, Tcl, XML, HTML 5, CSS 3? Yes, with (customizable) syntax coloring, folding, background syntax checking, and excellent auto-complete and calltips (they call it "code intelligence"). What else? Fast open (no more slow poking around for files); remote file editing; Vi keybindings (good ones); and a toolbox with shell command integration, macros and code snippets... all wrapped around a tricked-out editor and an extension mechanism the same as Firefox's.

Major Features:

1. Multi-Language Editor 
   • Syntax Coloring
   • • Fast and accurate syntax coloring for dozens of languages. Here documents and long Python docstrings can confuse some syntax colorers. Not Komodo's.
   • Multi-language Support, Think CSS-in-PHP
   • • Syntax coloring and code intelligence in Komodo doesn't stop at the language barrier. Full coloring of Ruby, HTML, JavaScript and CSS in RHTML helps you grok your code. Full auto-complete and calltips for all of CSS, JavaScript and HTML in an HTML5 file helps you code faster.
   • IME Support
   • • Support for native operating system input method editors to input Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Indic characters on Western keyboards.
   • Exceptional Basics
   • • Komodo's Editor sports all the basics and then some: folding, column/block editing, find highlighting, a tabbed editor, split view, multi-window support.
   • Background Syntax Checking
   • • Out-of-the-box background syntax checking for all core languages. Never waste time on an accidental syntax error again. If you are learning a new language, syntax checking will help you along.
   • Soft Characters == Less Typing
   • • Type an open quote in your code file and Komodo will insert the close quote for you (a soft character). Type the close quote and Komodo will know that you want two quotes, not three. Likewise for parentheses. It'll save you time.
   • Abbreviations == Less Typing
   • • Insert common boilerplate snippets and template code with a short abbreviation. Use Komodo's tabstops and interpolation shortcuts to define powerful and re-usable snippets.
   • Code Formatting == Nicer Code
   • • Komodo IDE supports an extensible system for code formatting. Plugin your favored code formatter and access it quickly via the "Format" in the context menu.
   • Vi Keybindings
   • • Vi/Vim keybindings in a graphical IDE, the perfect combination. Vi emulation so good you'll be tweeting "I can't believe it's not Vim".
   • Hyperlinks
   • • Ctrl+hover and Ctrl+click (Cmd on the Mac) in the editor to open a whole new world. Go to definition. Follow URLs. See and edit colors in CSS. Define your own handlers.
   • Smart Auto-indenting, But Not Smart-Alleck
   • • Language-aware smart auto-indenting frees your mind of indentation. However, Komodo doesn't try to be too smart, to avoid unproductive obsessing with whitespace.
   • Extensible with UDL
   • Syntax coloring support for new languages can be added via Komodo extensions using the User-Defined Languages (UDL) system. Komodo itself uses this for HTML, RHTML, Django HTML Templates, Smarty, Mason, etc. The excellent 3rd-party SciViews-K extension uses UDL for R syntax support.
2. Project Manager / Places 
   • Projects & Places
   • • A complete new Places sidebar makes navigating your source tree, whether local or remote, simple. It integrates with project files, source code control, Publishing, and mirrors actions on the file system so you don't need to leave Komodo for managing your files.
   • Multi-language Rx
   • • Komodo IDE's popular regular expression tool, Rx, now supports using any of Python, Perl, Ruby or JavaScript as the backend engine. Now you can be sure your are designing your regexes for the engine that will be running them.
   • Performance
   • • Startup, shutdown, tab switching, file opening, and text searching are all faster in Komodo 6. Built on Mozilla 1.9.1, Komodo 6 is generally snappier than ever before.
   • Publishing
   • • Quickly and easily keep local and remote directories in sync with Komodo IDE 6's new Publishing system.
   • Database Explorer
   • • Explore and manage your databases with Komodo IDE's new Database Explorer. It supports SQLite out of the box, with extensions for MySQL and Oracle available via "Tools | Add-ons".
   • Komodo IDE Database Explorer
   • • They wanted to add a tool to Komodo to make it easy to see what your data is doing, so they built the Database Explorer. This screencast will give a quick overview on how to use it:
     • • database connections
       • exploring
       • inspecting and querying
       • database support
       • extension developers
   • Improved Hyperlinks
   • • New hyperlinks (Ctrl/Cmd+click and Ctrl/Cmd+hover) provide popup symbol information, following anchors and hrefs in HTML files, following file paths (Ctrl+click to open) and following PHP includes (include_once, require statements).
   • Full Python 3 support
   • • Komodo now fully supports Python 3, including syntax checking, debugging, auto-complete, calltips, code browsing, etc.
   • HTML 5, CSS 3, jQuery, Perl 5.12
   • • Keep up with the latest with Komodo 6. Auto-complete now covers HTML 5, CSS 3, recent versions of jQuery, YUI and Dojo, and Perl 5.10 and 5.12.
   • Smarter Toolbox
   • • A re-designed toolbox integrates tools from the current project. Extensions can now provide tools (Run Commands, Macros, Snippets, Abbreviations) and tools are now simple JSON files to facilitate sharing.
   • Invoke Tool
   • • A new Invoke Tool panel (Ctrl+Shift+K, Cmd+Shift+K on the Mac) enables fast searching and invocation of your tools, all from the keyboard.
3. Toolbox 
   • Subversion, Git, Mercurial, …
   • • … Perforce, CVS, Bazaar. Integration with major source code control systems.
   • Code Formatting
   • • Extensible code formatting system. Out of the box formatters for HTML, XML, JavaScript and JSON.
   • DOM Viewer
   • • Live updating tree view of an XML or HTML document.
   • Toolbox
   • • Easily integrate shell commands, code snippets, and macros (supporting both JavaScript and Python) into your workflow with the Toolbox.
   • Interactive Shells for Python, Ruby, Perl and Tcl
   • • Try out and test code in the interactive shell.
   • Spell Checking
   • • Easy spell checking of your text documents.
   • Unit Testing
   • • Integrated running of tests for many popular frameworks: PHPUnit, Perl TAP, Python unittest, and Ruby's rake test.
