IMHO, vim. I haven't used emacs for perl work in a while, and it was
pretty good as well, though I recall somewhat slow, but I've found that vim's
actually makes my syntax errors stand out before I even run perl, since it
goes an extra mile to highlight more odd little corners of perl syntax.
BTW, jed used to have decent syntax highlighting for perl (not as good
as emacs), but it has gone horribly hownhill in the last few months. I
actually switched to vim expressly to get good perl syntax highlighting.
What cn I say, VIM gets my .sig right. :-)
