in reply to Perl Programming Tools - (who, what, where, when, and why)

Super Search on 'development tool' brings up lots of threads.
Just have a look!

Personally I use vim for editing, print and Data::Dumper for debugging.

    I guess it's time for me to put on my Data::Denter zealot hat! Really, try it, it's very cool. Mostly the output is more compact than with Data::Dumper.

    For extra buzzword brownie points you can also use Data::DumpXML ;--)

      You're right, I heard Brian Ingerson talk about Data::Denter and it sounded really cool!

      But Data::Dumper almost always fits my needs, and since Data::Denter isn't in the Perl 5.6.1 Core, I'm too lazy to install it. :-(
