No, it's alot better.  It has a look that is similar to the MSVC or VB
debugging tools and allows you to step into/over, etc.  I don't use it all
the time, but every once in a while it can be useful.  It lets you see what
is happening all in one place.

Unless they have added something - isn't this the same one that
comes with the standard perl release????

I will agree with most folks that working stuff in a 'debugger'
tends to be a bit more work than the usual

        prinf(...)

types of solutions - but it also saves you the time of putting
them in and taking them out...
