I have modified some of the language-specific abbreviations included with 
Komodo (I have also added some new ones).  When I recently accepted the 
upgrade to version 5.1.4, the modified abbreviations no longer worked. 
Instead, Komodo used the "upgrade" version of the abbreviation.  What I 
observe is that each upgrade creates a new "Samples (5.x.x)" folder in the 
Toolbox.  For example, I now have the following folders:

Samples (5.0.3)
Samples (5.1.0)
Samples (5.1.1)
Samples (5.1.3)
Samples (5.1.4)

As one example, I modified the "Samples (5.0.3)/Tcl/proc" abbreviation. 
But Komodo only uses the "Samples (5.1.4)/Tcl/proc" abbreviation.  I can 
fix it by deleting all the Samples folders except the one with my 
modifications, and/or moving my modified ones to the latest version.  But 
this is a maintenance nightmare.  Every time Komodo convinces me to accept 
an "upgrade", it regresses back to old abbreviations and then I have to 
perform manual maintenance to continue to use my set of modified 
abbreviations.

How can I avoid this?  What I want is for Komodo to always use my modified 
abbreviations, regardless of upgrading to the latest version.

BTW, I've already blown away most of the Samples folders so it's working 
for me again.  I just want to avoid having to do this in the future.
