Hi all -

I've been Googling myself silly trying to find an IDE or other tool that allows one to navigate up and down a class hierarchy for a Perl project (for Linux).

The only thing we have found is Perly-Sense, which is an Emacs plug in and not as GUI friendly as we would like. That plug in does allow one to jump to base class methods overridden in the child class and lists the parents of a derived class.

Apps that have 'Code Browsing' do not necessarily support this feature (such as Komodo or Eclipse with EPIC).

I have consulted the spreadsheet on Perl tools that is posted on Perl Monks, but it does not call out that feature specifically.

Thanks
-Sara S
