1. SSH to the remote server and use vi

When developing web applications and computer-specific applications.

5. Develop locally

For modules and normal scripts.

I'm not a Windows user, but Linux can be a great desktop OS too. I develop locally and remotely, but almost always with (a recent version of) vim. When developing web applications, I usually do so on the server it is going to run on, but not when it's a common module (like PLP) or the ssh connection is too slow.

When I need to move scripts away from my computer, I use e-mail if the script was meant for a customer, and I use scp (comes with ssh) for computer-to-computer copying. FTP is insecure and too much work.

Windows is now an emulated system on my computer, and only for electronic banking and some casual MSIE development. I have never used Windows to develop Perl scripts, though. Visual programming is something Windows is useful for, but I used an older computer for development back then, because IMHO, Perl for Win32, Apache for Win32 and MySQL for Win32 suck. I think the platform might be the cause :)
