Komodo Tour Scenario

This tour will give you an idea of the many things you can accomplish with Komodo. While completing the steps necessary to create a Perl application that retrieves stock information from a Web service, you will discover why Komodo is the ideal workspace for creating open source language applications.

It is recommended that you start at the beginning and progress through the tutorial in chronological order. Use the "Next" and "Previous" buttons at the bottom of each page to move forward and backward in the tour, or click one of the links at the top of each page to jump directly to a specific part of the tour.
