Also not looking to start any sort of editor-holy-war, but Emacs has a pretty nice remote editing environment in emacs tramp. There is also (although I have not had the tuits to configure it properly) the ability to run stuff under a remote perl. I am able to run under a remote command prompt (cd to the tramp path).

Add into that Emacs Code Browser, emacs pde (perl development environment - evaluating ATM), emacs unittest.el, and other nice features that I am still learning, I think that I will have a hard time (not impossible, however, given sufficient reason to move) outgrowing the capabilities of emacs.

All of this is said without stating that "emacs is better than $your_editor", as it is my opinion that an editor choice is somewhat emotional, individualized, and based more on past experiences than merits of any particular editor. My relationship with emacs is over 20 years, so I would definitely consider my opinion biased :-)
