February 4th, 2012Deploy to the Cloud with Stackato:
· Push your applications directly from Komodo IDE 7 to the cloud with integration with Stackato, ActiveState’s cloud platform for creating your private Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS). Launch the Stackato client interface from the Tools menu, and perform one-click deployment to the cloud. Databases are provisioned automatically.
Synchronize Multiple Workstations:
· Work on several operating systems and/or desktops? No problem. Komodo Sync lets you securely share your important data across multiple machines, including your toolbox items, key binding and color schemes, file and project templates, API catalogues, remote server accounts and preferences. Syncing occurs automatically and regularly after one-time setup.
Collaborate in Real Time:
· Speed up team programming: Komodo IDE 7 allows simultaneous editing with other users. Code Collaboration shares changes with other authorized Komodo IDE users in real time, with helpful highlights to identify what was added, what was removed, and who made the changes. Team coding and reviewing has never been more efficient.
Code Profiling for Better CPU Usage:
· Highlight code hotspots and detect performance issues faster. Code Profiling generates a graph of your application, showing you exactly where and how your program is spending CPU usage. Code Profiling in Komodo IDE supports Python (2.x and 3.x) and PHP (5.2 and higher), and can open stand-alone profiling results stored in Cachegrind/Callgrind and pstats formats.
More Languages and Frameworks (Node.js, CoffeeScript, LESS, SCSS, EJS, Mojolicious):
· The development world (especially for the web) is moving fast and Komodo helps you keep up. Komodo IDE 7 has full support for Node.js (editing / syntax checking, code intelligence, debugging), and adds editing for CoffeeScript, LESS, SCSS, EJS and Mojolicious.
Enhanced Performance:
· Komodo is the killer IDE when it comes to speed and efficiency of your development work. Built on Mozilla 7.0 (the same codebase as Firefox 7) Komodo IDE 7 gives you a better user experience with less loading time. Enjoy faster start-up (no component registration), a better browser preview (with added support for the latest web technologies) and unmatched stability.
And More:
· Komodo IDE 7 supports all of the features, languages and functionality as past versions, and adds much more including syntax checking within multi-language documents, enhanced navigation and searching, and smarter auto-complete.
October 9th, 2010Database Explorer:
· Lets you easily explore local and remote database installations, including viewing and managing data. SQLite is supported in this release, with more databases coming soon. Support for each database is implemented as a Komodo extension, so integration with other databases can be easily added.
Places:
· A new file manager has been added to Komodo's left pane. It provides a customized view of your file system (local or remote) and easy file management operations such as file editing, drag/drop copying, creation of new files and folders, and search.
Projects:
· Komodo projects are now integrated with the new Places component. Opened and recent Projects will be visible in a bottom pane of the Places panel. All projects are now live folders (no virtual folders) with only one project being opened/active at a time. Project preferences apply to all opened files (even if the file does not reside in the projects base directory). Project tools (macros, run commands, snippets, etc...) are now be displayed in the Komodo toolbox area.
Publishing:
· Copy remote files to your local system to work on them, then push them back to the remote system when you're done. Komodo keeps track of the synchronization details to avoid copying files that haven't changed, as well as using advanced conflict detection to avoid overwriting changes made by others.
New Toolbox:
· The Komodo toolbox and project system are being rewritten. Individual toolbox items (commands, macros, snippets, etc.) are saved in separate JSON files rather than as nodes in a toolbox.kpf file. There is a new "Invoke Tool" command which allows you to easily search and then execute specific tools. In future versions project-specific tools will appear in the Toolbox sidebar instead of the Projects sidebar, which will eventually be removed.
Faster:
· A number of Komodo components have been made to run faster, such as startup, shutdown, tab-switching and finding text. The underlying Mozilla source code has been updated to version 1.9.1, the same code base as Firefox 3.5, which means improved performance gains for Komodo.
· Workspace Save and Restore: Komodo will now be regularly saving your workspace. In the case of an unexpected shutdown, you can choose to restore your last used workspace the next time it starts up.
Hyperlink Additions - Hyperlinks have been extended and can now:
· show image preview while hovering on an image link,
· show Code Intelligence definitions while hovering on a symbol,
· jump to an HTML anchor tag to it's definition,
· jump to HREF and SRC locations,
· open files from a path reference,
· jump to PHP file includes
Rx Toolkit Improvements:
· Choose between Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby, and JavaScript syntax for testing your Regular Expressions. They are now evaluated "out of process", so a long-running regular expression won't tie up the IDE.
HTML 5 and CSS3 Support:
· Autocomplete for HTML 5 and CSS3.
· More Languages: Syntax highlighting for Markdown, MySQL, and others.
September 9th, 2009Performance and Stability Improvements:
· Komodo will now automatically style very large html documents as text in order to support faster edits and re-displaying of the document
· the find search speed has been increased, making it faster to search your documents
· the Rx Toolkit is now much faster when parsing results
PHP 5.3 support:
· Komodo now has started supporting PHP 5.3 in the following ways
Code Intelligence:
· Code browser and sectionlist support for namespaces (IDE only)
· Code completions for /Namespaces
· Syntax colorizing of latest keywords ("namespace", "use", "as", etc...)
PHP Debugging:
· Improved debugger wizard for the first time setup
· Updated xdebug builds to support PHP 5.3
Primary language preferences:
· It is now possible configure your primary languages that you use inside of Komodo.
Sub-language background colors:
· It is now possible to give sub-languages a different background color.
View HTML Source:
· If you drag/drop a web url onto Komodo (http://, https://), Komodo now offers to view the source contents of this web page. This is convenient for checking the underlying HTML source code of web pages.

· A lot of commonly requested/encountered Komodo bugs have been fixed in this release

· New languages: Support for Template-Toolkit, HTML-Mason, Smarty, Django, and Luddite has been added using UDL
· Vi emulation: Modal keybindings which emulate the navigation, text insertion, visual selection and command-line modes of Vi and Vim. Custom commands can be implemented by adding Komodo macros to a Vi Commands Toolbox folder.
· Configurable Background Syntax Checking: The frequency of background syntax checking is now configurable, improving editor responsiveness in large files.
· HTTP Inspector: An interface for examining HTTP requests and responses as they happen. It runs a local proxy which intercepts HTTP traffic and records each transaction for analysis. The Inspector can break on a request or response, which can then be edited and submitted in its modified form.

With the extension enabled, loading JavaScript or triggering JavaScript controls in the browser window opens a debugging session in Komodo, which loads the relevant JavaScript code.
· JavaScript Interactive Shell: An interactive shell for manipulating JavaScript code is available within JavaScript debugging sessions. This shell is similar in functionality to the other interactive shells in Komodo.
· Live Folders: Komodo projects now offer Live Folders which display current filesystem contents. The previous folder behavior is still available; these folders are now referred to as "Virtual Folders" in the documentation. By default, new projects are created with Live Import, making the project behave as a Live Folder. Project-specific Directory Import preferences define which files and directories to include.
· Project Settings: All project settings are now in the Project Properties dialog. This dialog box is now used for files, folders and projects, displaying the appropriate properties for each type.
