[Komodo-3-beta] "Edit with" doesn't make Komodo top window | Re: [Komodo-3-beta] Various findings
Hello,

I've been using Komodo 3.0 beta in the past week on WinXP SP 1 
(developing Perl only) and these are the things that I ran into:

1. It crashed 3 times at unpredictable moments. I wasn't able to 
reproduce this. My Komodo 2.5 has maybe crashed once in the past year.
2. The debugger yesterday refused to give me the values of any variable. 
It just said 'bizarre copy of array blablabla' in the debugger DLL.
3. I wasn't able to find out how in the code-pane on the left I could 
make the 'No documentation available' show the documentation on a 
function I selected. The POD documentation at the bottom of the file 
should have appeared there I presume?
4. Komodo thought that a file with mixed DOS and Unix line endings 
should be reported as syntax errors (a file with those was all green 
underlined). I had to use UltraEdit to convert the file to all Unix line 
endings to make this annoying thing disappear.
5. It's significantly slower than 2.5, but that may be due to debugging 
information in the executable?

Apart from this, it looks very promising...
