i make a lot of syntax errors while typing and think a good perl editor will solve my problem
Actually I doubt if it will. Consider all the people on the 'net who type two for to and their for there, etc. All the syntax-checking in the world won't cure that kind of error.
Personally, I use Notepad on Windows (and gedit on Linux). When I make a mistake the compile catches it. When the compile doesn't catch it I learn even more by finding it myself. But if that doesn't suit (and money is no object) try ActiveState's Komodo. I understand it is very good. Or you could try SciTE. It is OK and free. I don't remember where I got it but Google will find it.

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).
