I would so love to figure away of getting a terminal in the Open
Komodo editor, then I can do all my building from there rather than
having another terminal open.
Linux - Should be able to use the gnome terminal embedded.
Windows - Possibly use the rxvt terminal (only problem I see is that
the svn prompt for passwords does not work.)
OS X - um, well, I have no idea :).

Stevo.

I do that currently by using "New Command" from the toolbox on the right
hand pane.

Yeah, but I have a script I run in my .bashrc that sets up a bunch of
variables and scripts for my dev and the "New Command" from the
toolbox doesn't seem to be able to run a script and hold those
variables before running other stuff :(.

prefix your command with source /path/to/.bashrc.

Hmm, on windows:

C:\mozilla-build\msys\bin\bash.exe -e /c/sbird/bin/smake.sh %d

should work but I keep getting errors like uname, mkdir, sed: command
not found :P

not sure on that one, I'm in OSX. I would check sourcing the .bashrc or
ensuring that your env vars are persisting pre-existing variables.

ie: PATH=%PATH%..... instead of PATH=/path/here

hopefully that works.
