help: need suggestion on an IDE for learning perl...

[Guest]

thanks in advance...

i currently have vs.net & codewarrior, i'm a student learning programming,
and just picked up perl cd bookshelf. and having a color syntax ide helps a
lot. i can't afford buying komodo anymore after spending it on vs.net.
plus komodo crashes lots when i do search/replace. for those who uses their
common ide to code perl/tk with, please be generous and point me a direction
on which ide you're using and how to add extension to that ide for a proper
color syntax of perl? or is that even possible?

thx a ton,
orbii

This is a FAQ:

perldoc -q editor

There are lots of editors that do syntax highlighting for Perl. Pick one you
like and use it.

You're welcome.

Something else you should know: top-posting is frowned upon in this
newsgroup. See http://web.presby.edu/~nnqadmin/nnq/nquote.html for some
reasons why. The practical reason for not top-posting is because folks here
don't like it. They're more likely to help if you follow the accepted
practice.
