The syntax highlighting in Emacs' cperl-mode is extensive and tends to catch most of my syntax errors when I notice that the code did not highlight as expected. This is particularly useful for catching sigil and subscript typos — CPerl mode highlights direct array and hash lookups accordingly, so if I miss the shift key and type $foo[bar] instead of $foo{bar}, the syntax highlighting will indicate my mistake almost instantly.
