Less than a month after our awesome 9.0 release, we’re following up with our first minor Komodo 9 release. This build contains important bug fixes and is a recommended update for all Komodo 9 users. We’re committed to our software, so expect many more updates (both big and small) this year.
If you’re already using Komodo 9 use the Help > Check for Updates menu to start the update, otherwise you can obtain a copy by visiting the downloads section. This is a controlled release, meaning we’re sending out the update to everyone slowly over the next week.

Hidden Features?

In case you didn’t notice, we did a small contest on Twitter for Easter;

This contest was quickly won by @adahacker.

Want to try this Easter egg for yourself? Just hit `ctrl+shift+o` on Win/Linux or `cmd+shift+o` on Mac to open Commando, then type “kitt” or “Michael”. Warning: must be an 80s kid to fully appreciate this Easter egg.
