## Cool Colors for Komodo Edit 5.2.4
The default font and color schemes for [Komodo Edit](http://www.activestate.com/komodo_edit/) were disgusting in my opinion. So I made a scheme that looks like Zend/Eclipse or Mac Textmate. I am using Windows 7 and this .ksf file goes into
C:\\Users\\Michael\\AppData\\Roaming\\ActiveState\\KomodoEdit\\5.2\\schemes
but for XP it’d probably be like
C:\\Documents and Settings\\Michael\\Application Data\\ActiveState\\KomodoEdit\\5.2\\schemes
I installed these extensions and now it is my favorite code editor: ColorTab, JSTreeDrive, Mootools API Catalogs, SQLite Manager.
