Perl programs are just plain text, though, so you could download GNU
-Emacs or XEmacs
-(http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html)
-(http://www.xemacs.org/Download/index.html), or a vi clone such as nvi
-(available from CPAN in src/misc/) or vim (http://www.vim.org/). Vim
-runs on win32 (http://www.cs.vu.nl/%7Etmgil/vi.html). Vile is another
-widely ported vi clone that has a Perl language sensitivity module
-(http://www.clark.net/pub/dickey/vile/vile.html). SlickEdit
-(http://www.slickedit.com/) is a full featured commercial editor that
-has a modular architecture: it can emulate several other common
-editors and it can help with programming language sensitivity modules
-for a variety of programming languages including Perl. MultiEdit
-(http://www.MultiEdit.com) has a user extendable interface and
-good Perl support.
