"The Tcl Dev Kit is excellent. In a mostly-J2EE shop, the presence of Tcl can't be denied (even if it isn't advertised), providing both important infrastructure in custom CVS server scripts and application server admin tools, everyday tools to support development, and a reliable "go-to" set of capabilities to quickly solve nasty problems that system-level languages complicate unnecesarily.

The kit extends what is provided by the core language and the helpful Tcl community with an extensive, clean set of packages, debugger, wrapper (huge improvements since the TclPro days), and (my new favorite) editor for scripting and XML/XSLT in Komodo."

"The quality of ActiveState's Tcl Dev Kit really shows. It has a really intuitive user interface."

"Komodo IDE 4.0 is the Swiss army knife of scripting languages and web development. With the addition of integrated JavaScript debugging, HTML/XML/CSS auto-completion, an integrated HTTP protocol inspector, an integrated DOM inspector, and a handful of other nifty tools, it's quite possibly the coolest thing to happen to scripting languages since, well, ever."

"Kudos for adding XML catalogs to Komodo IDE 4.0. I am really impressed!"

"I really dig Komodo IDE's toolbox; it's the coolest thing. It's great to have an editor that you can just extend like that, and share your extensions with the team—quickly, without having to write full-on plugins."

"I am a Mac addict, and on Mac OS X, I code with Komodo IDE. I love Komodo IDE's clean, integrated UI, the compact and usable project navigation bar, the ability to see code structure, and support for CVS and Subversion, and I was able to create a macro five minutes after installation! I am delighted with the capabilities. Komodo is the best IDE for scripting languages."

"Komodo IDE doesn't just act as an IDE for Python but is also a very accomplished Perl, PHP, and Tcl IDE providing all the standard features like code highlighting and folding along with code completion. The Rx Toolkit is so advanced it could quite easily be a mini standalone app as it provides not only matching of text and highlighting but also shows the data that would appear in the various group matches."

"I use Perl constantly, and have to say that not only is Komodo IDE the best editor I have ever used for Perl scripts, it's the best editor I've used for any language."

"Komodo IDE is world-class. It makes software engineers out of hackers."
