What's a good Perl code navigator?

Question

I'm about to write some plugins for a quite huge Perl project. Now I wanted to get a feeling for the project by reading interesting sections of the code. But I'm missing a good code navigator. Some of the features I'd like to see:

• right click on a sub call and navigate to the sub
• find all places where a sub is called
• find all places where a variable is used

Is there anything out there that does this for free?

EDIT: Also I'd like a navigate forward/back feature so that after a jump to a sub I can pick up where I left off.

Answer 1

You can check either:

1. Padre, specifically aimed at refactoring;

2. Komodo Edit

check also the discussion What's the best Perl IDE?.

If you don't like them, there is emacs...

Answer 2

I like the combination of these tools

• vim
• ctags
• taglist.vim
