No matter what operating system I'm on, I'm a big fan of vim. For some reason a lot of my Perl people seem to like vi and it's variants. In addition to myself and a few friends, here's a quote from a Damian Conway interview that I read a while back:
"I often find myself developing right in my editor. In fact, I have a key permanently bound to ":!perl -w %" under vi for just that reason."
After reading the interview, I used his idea and mapped Ctrl-P to ":!perl -w %" in my .vimrc file. I also saved the quote. :D

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
