You shouldn't use WordPad for writing Perl code (or any kind of code), you
should get some kind of programmer's editor that can do syntax
highlighting and has some kind of smarts about the syntax of the language
you are writing in, so you'll know that you have unmatched parentheses or
braces. There are plenty to choose from, both free and non-free.
I personally use emacs (both on Windows & Unix), but you should find one
you like.
