Re: Re: Sub-initiate needs help getting started

Once you start getting a handle on things, you might find it helpful to use the Eclipse IDE (www.eclipse.org) with perl extensions (e-p-i-c.sourceforge.net). It's great for spotting syntax errors and figuring out what subroutines and regexes do.

On the issue of IDE's and if your company can spare a few hundreds of dollars, the professional version of Komodo certainly warrants a closer look. I'm quite happy with it as it really speeded-up my programming. Of course, YMMV and many other Monks will surely tell you that the IDE they are using is far superior (and less expensive), but I'm happy with it and that's all I can say.
