LanX has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Honourable monks

A bit of topic, more related to productivity:¹

With the following command I can tell a running emacs (with activated gnuserv) to jump to a certain file and line

emacsclient --no-wait +LINE_NR FILEPATH

what's the corresponding way to do this in Komodo IDE??? ²

I have problems to find that out, and I want to provide this functionality for my team, too.

I know that VIM has a server mode, but for Komodo I seem to need to dig into Python code to achieve this....

For maximum profit for the community I'd appreciate snippets to achieve this for other products too.

(VIM, Nodepad++, Eclipse,... )

¹) Need to automatically jump to a code position which defines a html snippet currently displayed in my browser.

²) so many Komodo fans here... ;-)

      Thanks, but Google wasn't friendly to me or I missed the following

      > If Komodo is already running, a file given as an argument will be opened in the existing instance in a new tab:

      Hmm hopefully the file won't be opened again if already open...

      update

      Nope, ko is sufficiently clever. :)

    For NPP this is: Notepad++.exe "File.txt" -n450
