Tom,
If you're running on Win32, look at ActiveState's Perl Development Kit at
www.activestate.com. It looks a bit more like MS DevStudio than Emacs/JDE, but
it can probably do most of what you want.

2Q:
* How might one view said script? I've wondered if there was some way
around the "one huge tags file," but never looked into the matter.
* I may be joining a project where I'd be doing mostly Perl. I'll miss
JDE! Is there a Perl Development Environment for Emacs, or something
similarly functional?
