Try to look at Vim for Perl developers by TVSET. In my opinion, using VIM is effective and universal way to get power and platform independent tool for Perl development. Hope it helped. -- Michael Stepanov	[reply]

Maybe you'd be interested in EPIC, a set of Eclipse plugins. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

Check the entry "Is there an IDE or Windows Perl Editor?" in perlfaq3 I prefer the highly cross-platform vim, myself. Hanlon's Razor - "Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity"	[reply]

I use emacs for development, and it should work on Solaris as well. If you need a GUI debugger, you could try the Perl/Tk debugger. This would require that you install Perl/Tk, though. `>perl -d:ptkdb hello_world.pl` [download] Update: the Tk debugger should be installed when you install Tk, but just in case, you can find it here. There's also the node Perl IDEs and Editors update. Cheers! -- hiseldl What time is it? It's Camel Time!	[reply] [d/l]

Emac ... The 'swiss-army-knife' for Unix nedit ... An excellent visual editor for X ... Personally I use Emac sometimes, but most of time I edit my Unix files with Windows based editor 'ConText', via SMB mount, combined with 'ddd' visual debugger for Perl/C/etc.	[reply]
