If you're using Windows, I can heartily recommend Open Perl IDE. It hooks in with Perl a treat, and you can even do debugging straight off the code, set watches/breakpoints, etc.
In Linux, my preferred development environment, I tend to just use a basic editor and do things on the command line. I haven't found anything like Open Perl IDE for Linux yet.. although if anyone has any suggestions..
Update: Just went crawling to look for a free Perl IDE for Linux and haven't turned up trumps yet, but I found Perl.com's Resources guide which has a debugging resource section and links to a selection of editors.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
