Re: Komodo IDE better screenshots (worth reading!)

Hmmm ... I've had the same problem using PyCharm; it just doesn't look
good, but after a while I stopped noticing and started loving the
features of that IDE. Tried PyCharm Cal? The last time I tried Komodo
it crashed big time. I'd been using Komodo for a while and the bugs
might have been fixed now, but I got a license for PyCharm cuz of DSE
and haven't looked at anything else since.

Big thanks to JetBrains for the free license. Apply for a license here

Regards,
Thomas
