What type of install is the program. .deb .tar.gz? – mateo Aug 10 '12 at 19:00
I highly recommend marking @LnxSlck's answer as correct. It's spot on. – Tass Feb 20 at 16:35

  1. Download the latest release

  2. tar zxvf Komodo-Edit-7.1.0-10496-linux-x86_64

  3. cd Komodo-Edit-7.1.0-10496-linux-x86_64

  4. sudo ./install.sh

When you are asked where you would like to install it go ahead and type the directory to where it should be installed.

Once it finishes you still have one more step, inserting the executable into your PATH variable. This can be done with a simple command:

  1. sudo ln -s "/home/myuser/Software/Komodo-Edit-7/bin/komodo" /usr/local/bin/komodo

You could also use a repository, as described here.

It includes Komodo Edit in Ubuntu in a much better way (accessible from the dash, some other Ubuntu conventions).

To complement the Ubuntu experience, activate the Global Menu plugin.
