Hi,
I have just started learning Perl and looking for a decent IDE, just wondering what you guys thought?
Note: I will be learning python after it too, so if it can do both then thats a brucey bonus!
Thanks

Or learn VIm. Our development team uses Perl exclusively and VIm is an integral part of the development process. Vim is very customizable: efficient keybindings, compile/lint checks, autocomplete, etc. Plus you can easily edit remotely via ssh+screens.

Notepad++ is a surprisingly good general code editor. It's not really a full IDE, but it has a tabbed interface, line numbers, auto-completion, syntax highlighting for a large number of languages, and it lacks the horrible features of a lot of other code editors.

I use PSpad exclusively. I feel it's the best you'll find for the price (free!). Had bindings for almost all languages.

Another vote for vim - I use it for all my coding.
