perlnow.el - emacs extensions to speed perl development

introduction

perlnow.el is a collection of utility commands for perl programmers who use emacs. These commands are designed to help automate some routine tasks in the initial creation of perl scripts and modules. Commands are also provided to assist in running, testing and debugging inside of emacs.
Detailed documentation has been included inside the *.el file itself, using the "docstrings" that are easily accessible through the emacs help system (e.g by asking for help on a "variable" named "perlnow-documentation-tutorial"). Think of it as the poor man's pod (or perhaps the lazy man's info).

This documentation has also been extracted to this web page:
