While I haven't stumbled upon a script that could automate the process of 'evaluating' the quality of your perl code, there are plenty of online and print resources you could find helpful. Perl Best Practices (review) by O'Reilly is invaluable in that regard.

Some other online resources on the subject:

Ten Essential Development Practices
"Best Practices" at the monastery
Slashdot discussion
Common Perl practices (novice traps)
Perl style guide
Perl guide on DBI - since often used in cgi...

  • 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.
