I used to be a Komodo tribesman and still use 3.5. However, with the change to 4.0 Active State dropped the "personal" price and really haven't provided any real incentive to upgrade. I've lost faith in them. Eventually I'll upgrade one of the pro versions we have at work in the hope that it is a little more stable debugging Perl and doesn't lose the plot after a modest number of files have been opened.

There are a lot of things to like about Komodo, but there are a lot of rough edges - mostly in terms of bugs that really should have been fixed. I still tend to use it as my default editor for text files, even to the extent of copy and pasting between Visual Studio and Komodo so I can reformat comments in Komodo before pasting them back into Visual Studio (my main work environment).

Sigh, maybe someone from Active State will listen and reinstate the personal price, but I doubt it. But if they do, I'll probably get the two work copies upgraded too.
