In case we have any Arch users, I took this opportunity to learn more about AUR and created a Komodo-IDE package for it

So installing on Arch should be as simple as `pacaur -S komodo-ide`

Hi guys, I'm the lead developer for Komodo IDE. Excited to share our hard work with you. Happy to answer any questions you might have.

Do you support code refactoring yet?

Eg, rename a symbol and have all usage of it updated (could be a local scope variable could be a class name used project wide)

I previously used Komodo IDE but for the last few years I've found IntelliJ IDEA to be more robust/full featured.

I'd love to be able to switch back, because the jvm definitely makes idea seem "heavier" somehow.

I believe this was introduced in version 9. So yes, we do support code refactoring.

One major difference between IDEA and Komodo that you may not be aware of is Komodo is based on Mozilla (XUL) and does not use Java.
