Re: using perldebugger as REPL?

[Joost]

Personally, I never ever use the debugger, but Sepia works fine for this kind thing - if you're using emacs anyway (and IMHO there isn't anything better) take a look.

Wel bedankt! 8 )

Just installed it and it looks really nice! *

Yes, I'm anyway using emacs - actually to an extend that I fear to be reborn with 20 fingers ; )

But nevertheless a perl only solution could be better!

Some emacs-blues

Unfortunately emacs-"moduls" are not as easily combinable like perl-modules.

For instance I just discovered ECB, but how does it combine with Cperl, Sepia and PerlySense ?

will I be able to rund the same emacs-config on the next machine, maybe a win instead of linux or will I need another week of reconfigurations ... therefore I always end with the basic config and the basic keyconfig after moving to a new system! : (

A reliable ELPAN is really missing!

UPDATE:
(*) wow it even gets multilines right 8)

Sepia version 0.92.
Press ",h" for help, or "^D" or ",q" to exit.
main @> print "a"
a=> 1
main @> 10/2
=> 5
main @> 5/2
=> '2.5'
main @> (1,2,3)
1 2 3
main @> for (1..10) {
>> print 
>> }

And you even missed Emacs::PDE :)

And a multitude of other enhancements! :)

I'm curious, what are you combining PerlySense with? Just cperl-mode?

Yes, Emacs package management is laughably bad, boiling down to: (1) contribute it to GNU Emacs, (2) prefix everything, or (3) cross your fingers.

Also, version 0.92 is a year and a half old. The latest released version, 0.97, fixes a number of bugs and adds some potentially useful features like CPAN browsing.

Yeah I know ... but the debian package was installed within a minute! Reasonably fast for a quick test... 8 )
