s/vim/A vi-compatible editor (vi, vim, gvim, nvi, elvis, ...)/

Not that I would recommend it, but if you have Eclipse in the list (which I loathe), then certainly Netbeans should be on there too (also not used for the last 3 years)

To me, nothing beats Elvis (yet), thought its Unicode support is lacking

    There are many editors on this list that I "loathe" but I tried to be inclusive.

    Never used Eclipse/EPIC and I think it hasn't been maintained for many years.

    And I doubt even Gabor is using Padre.

    and neovim? :)

    I don't claim to know all players in this niche, I also didn't add all emacs clones. So I updated "vi'ish"

    > Netbeans

    Well I thought it belongs to the JetBrain universe with all its different brands. Added it too.

    But guys, you can also reply directly to the OP. =)

    edit

    FWIW: If I was immortal, I would start a project to centralize integrated Perl support for all editor-interfaces (debugger-integration, code-completion, snippets, etc).

    Like Language Server Protocol but more extensive and Perlish and with a testing framework to ensure those features really work and don't start breaking with the next release.
