Hello,

Komodo IDE 7.0.0 Alpha 5 is now available. For existing Komodo 7 users, 
use the '/Help -> Check for Updates.../' menu to update, else you can 
download this release through the link below:

    http://www.activestate.com/komodo-ide/downloads

The major changes to Komodo IDE 7.0.0a5 are:

    * *Preferences Searching
      *

    Komodo now provides a search box in the preferences page that can be
    used to narrow down the appropriate preference categories for the
    preference you are looking for. 

    * *Notification Pane
      *

    There is a new notifications panel located in Komodo's bottom pane
    that is used to keep track of the events occurring in Komodo.
    Statusbar messages, SCC actions and other events will now populate
    this Notifications panel - this allows easy reviewing, checking and
    copying of the events that have occurred in Komodo. 

    * *View-specific Toolbar
      *

    A new toolbar has been placed at the top of each editor tab. This
    toolbar will now contain editor specific controls such as the
    Sections List popup, Language selection and file encoding choices. 

    * *Main Toolbar Customization
      *

    It's now possible to select the individual toolbar items you wish to
    be shown in the main Komodo toolbar. Use the /View > Toolbars >
    Customize.../ menu to start your tweaking. 

    * *Code Completion Widget Replacement
      *

    The code completions widget inside of Komodo has changed. Whilst
    most users shouldn't the difference between the old and new
    completion widget, this will allow adding of additional information
    to the completions dialog and also allow us to add smarter code
    completions down the road.

The Komodo IDE 7.0 alpha builds can be trialed by anyone (you don't need 
to hold a Komodo IDE license).

Komodo 7.0.0 final will be released some time next year (in 2012); we'll 
continue releasing additional Komodo 7 alpha and beta builds every 4-8 
weeks until that time.
