Basically PERL runs on Linux by default, but in Today's world peoples are using Microsoft Windows on Huge basis because of its functionality, features, GUI and of some many reasons. Here are some steps which are very useful in setting up PERL development in Microsoft Windows. We will use Windows environment through tutorial series. For your convenience, we will use all free development tools. You can also find such the same free tool in your platform such as Linux or Mac.
Download and install ActivePerl
You first need to download ActivePerl the latest version from http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/.

Try Padre IDE. It is not easy to install if you are not using Strawberry, but it is very powerful.
ReplyDeleteFurther to what chorny said, I've found that using Strawberry Perl is a lot nicer than AS Perl as it comes with a compiler tool chain so you can install about 99% of CPAN just as you would else where.
