Learn vi/vim in 50 lines and 15 minutes eat your heart out Sams ;-)

I use vim a lot but (if you don't mind paying or ahem) I also find perlbuilder2 from solutionsoft a good GUI tool. It runs on win32 and within X so you can have the same IDE on both platforms. Still vim is pretty potent once you wrap you head around it, plus it deals with any source code, highlights it, yada yada. Who could not love an editor that talks to you. Beep :-)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
