Yes this was (meant to be) included in Turnaround / Jump to Error

I configured F5 in emacs to run the code, open a frame with the output and jumping to errors.

Thats basic, every IDE should provide this.

Geany is really neat, I think you generally mean a multiframe layout with specialized help windows like in ECB

> If I was able to controll the input from within the editor (similar to http://ideone.com, I would consider that an IDE feature

good IDE's allow multiple frames/windows and actions can be scripted, like saving a textbuffer automatically and feeding it as STDIN into a program.

I'm not sure about the easiest way to do this in Emacs or Komodo¹, but I never really needed this on the editor level.

Either it belongs to testing or it's handled with reading from <DATA>, both things happening on the Perl level.

update

¹) see also http://docs.activestate.comkomodo4.4/run.html#run_advanced

in emacs I'd define a macro recording keystrokes to saves the script buffer and runs command with another text-buffer as input. These macro can be saved to file and bound to a key.

Having a code-wizard (like Komodo does) is for sure helpful.
