vim but now textmate (Score:1)
after I switched five years ago, i also had a tough time with vim and mac os x. I ended up compiling vim from source (at the time with 10.1 it was a mess...), but I got it to work.
Now, I switched to textmate, because I had a hard time making vim6 understand unicode in mac os x. I've grown accustomed to textmate snippets (I think there is a vim package now for something similar), and I'm happy.
it took a while to drop vim key sequences from the brain, being there for more than 10 years now, but I'm happy with textmate.
regarding the rest of the environment, I use the stock perl because is good enough for what I do, and unless you really need more recent features, I would suggest you do the same, less hassle.
I do have a recent perl stashed somewhere in
Best regards,
life is short

Just so you know...there is already a Vim7 package for OSX:
http://macvim.org/OSX/index.php [macvim.org]There are also suggestions for tweaks there as well. That probably wasn't the case 5 years ago though.
