The Perl Dev Kit (PDK) provides essential tools for building self-contained, easily deployable executables for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris, AIX and HP-UX.
The comprehensive feature set includes a graphical debugger and code coverage and hotspot analyzer, as well as tools for building sophisticated Perl-based filters and easily converting useful VBScript code to Perl.
What's New
Version 9.1.1: Release notes were unavailable when this listing was updated.
Requirements
PPC / Intel
Mac OS X 10.4 or later
ActivePerl 816 or later is required for universal binary support in PerlApp
Perl Dev Kit is a great tool for doing cross.platform Applications, though you will need to install on every single Platform andbuild on them,
the integrated PPM Package Manager, makes installing and maintaing Modules a snap, but well the PPM packages are quite less compared to the complete CPAN, anyway this helps a lot to keep an eye on dependencies and make sure the App will work in (special) Windows, too.
I rather like the debugging in Komodo IDE
I miss some kind of simple GUI IDE, but well this is merely the point of Perl ..., since there are many, and very OS dependant GUIs
