I'd like to be able to write and run Perl scripts on my office computer (Win2k). Can anyone recommend a good tool?

The best tool for getting things to run is a treadmill. Or a cheesy movie plot, people always run very fast from those.

Standard treadmills aren't good for getting things to run. You have to include something like a piece of cheese suspended by a string just out of reach.

Cheese? Dude, I don't know what motivates you, but you aren't even going to make me look in your direction unless you have cash, 20 bucks or more.

For some reason I was thinking of getting mice to run. How about a concrete, then? A sandwich? Ralphie pictures?

Dude: cash. No substitutes.

But lets see... if you need to write/run perl, maybe you could download it http://www.perl.com/ there.

This is what I use for Perl, but I don't write Perl professionally; doubtlessly someone can recommend something better.

I recommend getting CygWin installed too.
