in thread My Perl journey begins

Thanks for the response . Modern Perl is on my list. The IDE link is very useful…I had already tried BBEdit…an excellent text editor…but I decided on vscode.

However, I have seen several references to IntelliJ IDEA and decided to take the plunge. It is fantastic. I have some experience with its sister product CLion so didn’t require much convincing.

    Yeah, their other products are almost identical. I use CLion for several projects as well (and Rider etc, etc). The awesome thing about their products is that they all allow you to install the same plugins. For example, CLion is what I use for C/C++ development, but it also allows the Perl plugin be installed, so I can work on my projects that include both C and Perl (such as this one) without having to have two IDEs open.

    I've been a user of their software for a very long time now. Best part is, is that they have an Open Source License, so if you've got a viable Open Source project(s) published, you can apply for said license, and that allows you to use every single one of their products for free.
