#komodo edit

Basic #HTML

HTML stands for hypertext markup language. It is the language behind websites including this one.

There are also different versions like HTML4 and HTML5 that added new content but we’ll get to those in a later post.

In order to make a webpage, all you need is a text document (easily created from Notepad) saved with a .html ending to the file (like index.html) and the necessary elements contained…

So today I finally found it.  In every application it seems there is always a "if only I could do this" Well I've been playing around with the PHP framework Phalcon for a little bit recently and I've been struggling to find a way to let my favourite IDE Komodo Edit know about all the goodness that Phalcon has available for the Code Intelligence (auto-suggest, help tips etc). Problem: The way that Phalcon installs itself isn't instantly compatible with IDE's.  The IDE just doesn't know that Phalcon is there.

Solution:  Using Phalcon-devtools  and including the path it install on to the project in Komodo Edit.

Step 1:

Get and install phalcon-devtools (https://github.com/phalcon/phalcon-devtools).

Step 2:

Open your project in Komodo Edit and open the Properties for the project.  There is a couple of ways of doing this but the easiest is to go to "Project > Properties"

Step 3:

Under Languages select PHP.

Step 4:

Under PHP Directories adda new directory and point it to the Phalcon-devtools folder that reads something like "/ide/1.3.1/Phalcon"

Step 5:

Save that and now start editing and noticing the wonder that is the Phalcon PHP framework being available in your IDE.

Enjoy.

Following on from my blog post about my failed move from Photoshop to Pixelmator a few months ago, here's the next one in the series about loosing Dreamweaver and gaining Komodo Edit.

I only used a small fraction of Dreamweaver's capabilities so I was confident that I was going to find something, I looked into a number of the bit players such as Coda 2, Espresso, Sublime Text and the like. But I was looking for something a bit less expensive. I then found Komodo Edit after a bit of searching, I also got a couple of recommendations from friends on Twitter, so I gave it a whirl.

I like…

Projects, it was the 'big thing' I needed from the app, a way of organising sites and their files and being able to explore files and open them quickly; it was the reason I didn't just want to use TextWrangler as a code editor. Dreamweaver comes with FTP within its sites organiser, but I've always used CyberDuck so didn't need all the bells and whistles.

The code editor window is very nice, it's quick and scrolling through long files doesn't come with any lag - even when I've got a dozen or more files open. The code map has been quite handy at times, but other times I've closed it to give me more width.

It's free, I was thinking I might have to spend a little bit to get a nice code editor - but this has ticked a lot of my boxes without commanding a fee. Bonus!

I don't confess to be a full on developer so I'm probably not pushing the app to its potential — and in the same breath for other developers it might be too basic not be enough for all their needs.

Edycja schematu

Jeżeli potrzebujesz dokokonać zmian w schemacie Komodo IDE/Edit, musisz go edytować w Edit → Preferences…, następnie wybierz „Category” Fonts & Colors. Z listy rozwijanej możesz wybrać jeden z domyślnych schematów systemowych, na którym będzie bazował twój schemat.

Jeśli potrzebujesz dokonać jakichkolwiek zmian wybranego schematu, możesz:

dodać nowy za pomomocą przycisku New… lub

wybrać schemat i zmienić/edytować jakąś wartość (np. preferowaną czcionkę).

W obu wypadkach zostanie wyświetlone nowe okno dialogowe, w którym należy podać nową nazwę dla schematu. Zauważ, że schemat, który tworzysz, będzie bazował na schemacie aktualnie wybranym.

Po nadaniu nazwy schematowi możesz edytować wszystkie jego wartości i właściwości.

Przywracanie schematu

Jeżeli tworzyłeś swój temat w Komodo, możesz znaleźć ten plik:

Windows (Vista lub nowszy): C:\Users\<uzytkownik>\AppData\Local\ActiveState\Komodo[IDE|Edit]\<wersja>\schemes\<nazwa_schematu>.ksf

Linux: /home/<uzytkownik>/.komodo[edit|ide]/<wersja>/schemes/<nazwa_schematu>.ksf

gdzie:

<uzytkownik> Twoja nazwa użytkownika/konta w Windows/Linux [IDE|Edit] oraz [ide|edit] odpowiadają Komodo IDE oraz Komodo Edit <wersja> numer aktualnie zaisntalowango Komodo IDE/Edit (np.8.0) <nazwa_schematu> nazwa Twojego schematu Komodo

Jeżeli potrzebujesz przywrócić swój schemat lub jakikolwiek inny plik .ksf, możesz otworzyć/edytować go za pomocą Komodo – aplikacja wówczas zapyta, czy chcesz zaimportować schemat kolorów do Komodo (drugą opcją jest otwarcie pliku jako zwykłego pliku tekstowego). Możesz również otwierać i edytować plik .ksf za pomocą jakiegokolwiek edytora tekstu (np. Notepad++).

Schema bearbeiten

Wenn man das Editor-Schema im Komodo IDE/Edit zu ändern braucht, sollte man es in Edit → Preferences… bearbeiten, dann „Category” Fonts & Colors wählen. Man kann aus der Dropdown-Liste ein voreingestelltes Schema wählen, das zur Basis für das neue Benutzerschema wird.

Braucht man irgendwelche Änderungen im ausgewählten Schema vornehmen, man kann:

ein neues über New…-Schaltfläche hinzufügen oder

ein Schema wählen und eine Eigenschaft ändern/bearbeiten (z.B. bevorzugte Schriftart).

In den beiden Fällen wird ein neuer Dialog angezeigt, wo ein neuer Schema-Namen eingeben werden soll. Merke, dass das Schema, das du gerade erstellst, auf dem momentan gewählten Schema basieren wird.

Nachdem das Schema benannt wurde, können alle seine Werte und Eigenschaften bearbeitet werden.

Eigenes Schema sichern und wiederherstellen

Wurde ein Benutzerschema in Komodo erstellt, so kann man die Schema-Datei finden:

Windows (Vista oder höher): C:\Users\<benutzer>\AppData\Local\ActiveState\Komodo[IDE|Edit]\<version>\schemes\<schema_name>.ksf

Linux: /home/<benutzer>/.komodo[edit|ide]/<version>/schemes/<schema_name>.ksf

wo:

<benutzer> ist dein Benutzer-/Konto-Name im Windows/Linux [IDE|Edit] und [ide|edit] stehen für Komodo IDE und Komodo Edit <version> ist die Nummer des gerade installierten Komodo Edit/IDE (z.B. 8.0) <schema_name> ist der Name deines Komodo-Benutzerschemas

Sollte das Schema oder eine andere .ksf-Datei wiederherstellt werden, kann man diese mit Komodo öffnen/bearbeiten – die Anwendung wird fragen, ob das Farbschema in Komodo importiert werden soll (eine weitere Option ist die Datei als eine einfache Textdatei zu öffnen/bearbeiten). Die .ksf-Datei kann auch mit einem beliebigen Texteditor (wie Notepad++) geöffnet und bearbeitet werden.

Edit scheme

If you would like to change the editor’s scheme in Komodo IDE/Edit you need edit it in Edit → Preferences… than choose the „Category” Fonts & Colors. From drop-down list you can choose one of the default system schemes that will be a base for your custom scheme.

If you need to make any changes to the selected scheme you can:

add a new one via New… button or

select a scheme and change/edit any value (e.g. prefered font).

In both cases there will be displayed a new dialog where you need to enter a new scheme name. Note that the scheme you are creating will be based on the currently selected scheme.

After you have named your scheme you can edit all values and preferences of it.

Backup & restore your scheme

If you have created a custom scheme in Komodo you can find the scheme file:

Windows (Vista or newer): C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\ActiveState\KomodoEdit\<version>\schemes\<scheme_name>.ksf

Linux: /home/<user>/.komodo[edit|ide]/<version>/schemes/<scheme_name>.ksf

where:

<user> is your user/account name in Windows/Linux [IDE|Edit] und [ide|edit] stand for Komodo IDE and Komodo Edit <version> is the number of the current installed Komodo IDE/Edit (e.g. 8.0) <scheme_name> is the name of your Komodo custom scheme

If you would like to restore your scheme or any other .ksf file you can open it with Komodo – the application asks you whether you would like to import the color scheme into Komodo (other option is to open/edit the file as a simple text file). You can also open and edit the .ksf file with any other text editor (like Notepad++).
