I am happy to announce that Padre 0.07 has been released.
What is Padre?
Padre
stands for Perl Application Development and Refactoring Environment
but in fact it is only a text editor with an oversized ego.
It is planned to be cross platform (Linux/Windows/OSX), open source Perl IDE written in Perl.
While it is still in its early development phase it is already usable.
I have been using it for nearly all my work almost since I started to write it.
Features
Some of the features it already has:
- syntax highlighting for several languages
- autocompletions
- execute your perl script from within the editor
- list of existing subs
- brace matching
- split view on the same document
Installation
It is available as a CPAN package but some of its prereqs are a bit hard to install so installation instructions can be found

Comments, suggestions and patches are welcome!
