Padre - Perl Application Development and Refactoring Environment

Home Page: http://padre.perlide.org

Padre is a text editor that is simple to use for new Perl™ programmers, but also supports large multi-lingual and multi-technology projects. Its primary focus is to create a peerless environment for learning Perl™ and creating Perl™ scripts, modules, and distributions, with an extensible plug-in system to support the addition of related functionality and languages, and to support advanced developers taking the editor anywhere they want it to go. It runs on Microsoft Windows™, Linux™, FreeBSD™, Mac OS X™, and NetBSD™ and is under the GPL™ and the Artistic licenses. Perl™ is often used as a binder between disparate components in an application or project and is noted for being easy to write, but difficult to read. Padre has all the features one would expect in a well-supported IDE. It was written using Perl5™.
