Periodically questions about the availability of Perl IDEs and editors appear. I subscribe to and just received the new ZDNet Downloads Digest whose subject was "ZDNet: Diamonds and Perls". The only download I can personally recommend is Open Perl IDE which is not in the list. But for those of you who would like to see what is out there, follow this link.

The products listed are:

Note that only Crimson Editor and Open Perl IDE are free, the rest are free to try/pay if you like. I know that this is not a complete list but if you have a favorite that doesn't appear above, feel free to reply with a link.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
