I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned EPIC, the Perl plugin for Eclipse. It works really really well, at least as well as the Java version (although it can't do as much prediction as Java can because of the nature of static vs dynamic languages). Full subversion integration, bugzilla/trac/jira integration, regex debugger, good syntax highlighting, builtin Perl Tidy, Perl Critic etc etc and of course, you get support for other languages in the same application. There is a git plugin, but it is somewhat basic - it's the main reason I keep using subversion rather than git. I don't know how well it supports XS. If you've never tried it, I'd highly recommend it. Like all new environments, it takes a while to get used to, but it is worth making the effort. clint > > I am using Emacs for almost 20 years now but it lacks good XS support. > > Torsten >
