perlmeditation dsb <p> I already posted this as a reply to the "Visual Studio & Active State" post...but since it looked like more that a couple were interested... </p> <p> <a href="www.solutionsoft.com/perl.htm">www.solutionsoft.com</a> has already developed and IDE for Perl called <b>Perl Builder</b>. If I remember correctly as of now it supports Active Perl5. I use it often at work and though I am new to Perl, I find it very helpful in Perl Development. </p> <p> Suffice to say the I don't like Microsoft. I resent having to pay more for software than I do in living expenses. <a href="www.solutionsoft.com/perl.htm">Solution Soft</a> offers a trial period with their Perl IDE. My own biases towards the MacroSoft Corporation make me hope that they do not corner the market on yet another facet to the Computer/Software Development Industry. </p> <p> OH YEAH!!! <a href="www.solutionsoft.com/perl.htm">Solution Soft</a> posted word that a Linux Version of their Perl IDE is in the works and should be released soon!!! </p>
