This is a big thing to learn, but when learned, will pay off dividends
like crazy.

Personally, and it is completely a personal thing.  I am using Debian as
my distribution, and there is a perldebug man page.

"man perldebug" gives a few hints.  There is also "man perldebtut",
which is a man page for a tutorial on perl debugging.

I have used "perl -d" before, but it is just a debugger, and you have to
use the "l" command to list the lines in your file.  ugh.  I was much
happier using "perldb" within Xemacs.  I had one buffer open on the
source file, and Xemacs had a pointer to the current line in the file.

I know that emacs takes some time to get used to, but when I was able to
fly with it, I could certainly tell my productivity going up.
