% Hi all,

Hello!


% 
% Can you recommend me a good editor for Perl scripts that runs under Windows?
% It should:

vim.  Maybe gvim if you're feeling decadent.


% 
% 1. Save the text with Unix end of lines.

Yep.


% 2. Write somewhere the current line I am in.

Yep.


% 3. Not necessary but it would be wonderful to have a hotkey to jump from
% subroutine to subroutine, or to list the subroutines in a combo or list and
% to be able to choose the one I want from there.

You can macro this, although paragraph-jumping is usually sufficient for
me.  I haven't yet played with folding in 6.x, but I look forward to it;
entire blocks (subroutines, modules, whatever) can get folded up in an
instant.


% 
% With all the success of Perl, I am wondering why isn't there any accessible
% good and proffessional editor for Windows.

There is; you just haven't met vim yet :-)  It has a wonderful syntax
file that does keyword highlighting and quote matching and so on.

Precompiled binaries for just about every OS, including DOS (yes, even
16-bit and you can still save in UNIX format!) and Windows, as well as
sources available from ftp.vim.org or http://vim.org at your leisure.


% 
% Thank you.
