What's the Best Tool for Perl (for Mac)?

UNIX macOS

Would it be "PerlApp" or "Active Perl?" Trying to decide on the best tool in order to edit and create a few perl scripts for a mac program I'm working with.

Any users out there?

As much as I hear people knock it, I find BBEdit to be incredibly helpful. Not only is the syntax checking great, but you can launch programs right from a little drop down menu.

If you don't feel like paying, you can use TextWrangler, emacs, or TextEdit (the latter two come with every mac).

Thanks Peter. Someone else also mentioned to me that TextMate was a good tool also, I downloaded a free version and it's pretty nice.
