in reply to Perl IDE's for Mac

I use Carbon Emacs. Emacs with good font rendering and standard Mac keys supported. There is a vocal group who love TextMate. And of course Komodo runs well on a Mac.

    Mac OS X is Unix, so use your favorite Unix editor (Emacs or VI). For Emacs, check the Emacs Wiki for extensions.

      It's not just Unix -- there's the whole UI layer to integrate with. If you want to use Emacs, I strongly recommend the Carbon Emacs port. Without it, fonts look terrible compared to the rest of the Mac apps. Carbon Emacs doesn't need an X11 server either. And of course you can set the keys yourself, but having a simple option to use the common Mac keys is really handy.

        Sorry, I was probably too vague. I use the Cocoa Emacs (used to use the Carbon port), and find the X11 version unbearable. That said, I think trying to shove Mac keybindings into Emacs is a bad idea.
