Tim,

   If your using windows and want to use a version of
   Vi goto the following: http://www.winvi.de/en
   It really works just like vi and is great so you can
   Use :set numbers commands so you can see which line
   Your errors occur in. 

   Use vi is a standard editor in every unix system but
   Emacs is also a good editor but takes far too much 
   Memory and disk spaces for my needs.

Phillip

Subject: RE: Where is editor that will Indent my perl code?

Tim (or anyone else)
I have vim 6.1 and tried it out. I know VI (a little)
so I thought vim would not be so bad. I tried help and
searching help for indent and found it. It looks more
like a function call for their macro language than it
does a command. I tried ":indent(6)" and it did not
work.

 How do I use VIM to re-indent a perl function?

  Also, I assume by your response that PerlBuilder
indents code too?

   Thanks,
          Siegfried
