You should give BBEdit a try
(http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.shtml). It isn't free,
but it's by far the favorite all-purpose text editor on the Mac. It
supports regular text, HTML, and a plethora of other languages such as
C, C++, Objective-C, Python, Ruby, BASH scripts, Perl, PHP, regular
expressions, XML, and a lot more which I can't think of off the top of
my head.
OS X comes with built in Perl support along with Apache, so you can
easily test all of your perl scripts either from the command line, or
by accessing your scripts via web pages using the address
http://localhost/path/to/script.pl
It is very easy to develop web applications on the Mac, probably moreso
than on a PC since OS X comes with everything you need right out of the
box (minus BBEdit, of course).
Hope that helps.

Hello xcode users. I am a recent convert and I need some advice
regarding
the best way to create and test perl scripts in Panther. Is
xtools/xcode
good for this? Does anyone recommend any particular application? For
example, in a windows environment you can use a freeware app called
Crimson
Editor which is aware of perl syntax and can color code your script
for you
and it also provides a way to test your scripts. I hope there is such
a
convenient way to write perl scripts on a mac. TIA, Robert.
