or even in emacs, a text buffer and shell window to run it in. i think
there is some support for this so you can just do a keystroke and run
the current buffer as a perl script. i use the separate xterm as JP
does. the emacs window has the advantages of searching. i don't know it
will clear the window each time it runs. in an emacs shell, it doesn't
so you have history and you can save it as well.
