My Komodo Color Scheme

If you would like to use the color scheme for Komodo that I used for the 2016 edition of my Perl course, here it is. To install it, save the file on your computer, then drag-and-drop it onto the running Komodo app.

The Calynda font is not publicly available, so you’ll need to change the font once it’s installed. Calynda is specifically designed for readability at a large size, so it’s probably not what you want anyway. Menlo on a Mac, or Consolas on a PC is often a good choice. Choose the size that works best for your screen, and your eyes.
