  • I've had the same problems settling on a word processor that I can be fully comfortable with for writing. I still don't have an answer, but one possibility on the Mac is Nisus Writer. It's a stripped down word processor that also has full perl scripting capabilities. Seems it might be possible to script something to run through a document, pull out the perl code, and run it. But it's only on Mac.

  • I'm writing it in POD... and I can't for the life of me find the "run this code in perl" short cut in any Word Processor I've tried.

    Since you're writing it in POD, use Test::Inline.

    Syntax check your code.

               =for example begin

               use LWP::Simple;
               getprint "http://www.goats.com";

               =for example end

    And even write tests for your examples.
