in reply to Perl Programming Tools - (who, what, where, when, and why)

I'm programming in 2 environments:

On HP-UX I also use vi - love it, and have been using it for about 15 years. As for debugging, mainly it's down to a liberal sprinkling of prints :)

On the NT side, I'm currently using PerlIDE, which allows some debugging - seems to work pretty well, both as an editor (colour-codes context, keywords etc) and as a debugging environment.

    At home under Linux it is for fun, I use EMACS with cperl-mode. Work requires Windows NT and gets:

    - NT Emacs with CUA.el for Windows-like Keys
    - Open PerlIDE

    As more I use Emacs the more I love it: hilite, CVS integration, debugging support, ediff etc.
