Hi

First of all you will have to set up your basis environment. 
colors, indentation etc .....

Your really have to byte the bullet and read the manual.

I'm using Gnu Emacs version 20.7.1  on Windows 2000 and it works
fine 


Emacs Manual

Take a look at some lisp packages at

I've included a screen shot of my Emacs setup as is with

        

Jbuilder
type font settings

        

Emacs Code
Browser

        

JDE ( Java
development environment) completion menu

        (elisp) language, that makes
all your programmings wishes come
        true. Please introduce
yourself to Emacs and your programming era
        will get a new light.

Emacs Perl Modules

    Cperl -- Perl programming mode

       
.ftp://ftp.math.ohio-state.edu/pub/users/ilya/perl
       
.<olson@mcs.anl.gov>          
Bob Olson (started 1991)
       
.<ilya@math.ohio-state.edu>    Ilya 
Zakharevich

        Major mode for editing perl
files. Forget the default
        `perl-mode' that comes with
Emacs, this is much better. Comes
        standard in newest 
Emacs.

    

Tiny Tools 

Try
http://tiny-tools.sourceforge.net/
for Perl tools 

If you ever wonder how to deal with Perl POD pages or how to find documentation from all perl man pages, this package is for you. Couple of keystrokes and all the documentation is in your hands. 

        o   Instant function help: See documentation of `shift', `pop'...
        o   Show Perl manual pages in *pod* buffer
        o   Load source code into Emacs, like Devel::DProf.pm
        o   Grep through all Perl manpages (.pod)
        o   Follow POD manpage references to next pod page with TinyUrl
        o   Coloured pod pages with `font-lock'
        o   Separate `tiperl-pod-view-mode' for jumping topics and pages
            forward and backward in *pod* buffer.
        o   TinyUrl is used to jump to URLs (other pod pages, man pages etc)
            mentioned in POD pages. (It's a general URL minor mode)




    TinyIgrep -- Perl Code browsing and easy grepping

        [TinyIgrep is included in the Kit]

        To grep from all installed Perl modules, define database to
        TinyIgrep. There is example file emacs-rc-tinyigrep.el that shows
        how to set up datatbases for Perl5, Perl4 whatever you have
        installed

        TinyIgrep calls Igrep.el to run the find for you, You can adjust
        recursive grep options, ignored case, add user grep options.

        You can get `igrep.el' module from <kevinr@ihs.com>. Ask for copy.

        

Check also ftp://ftp.ihs.com/pub/kevinr/

    TinyCompile -- Browsing grep results in Emacs *compile* buffer

        TinyCompile is minor mode for *compile* buffer from where
        you can collapse unwanted lines, shorten the file URLs

            /asd/asd/asd/asd/ads/as/da/sd/as/as/asd/file1:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
            /asd/asd/asd/asd/ads/as/da/sd/as/as/asd/file2:NNN: MATCHED TEXT

            -->
            cd /asd/asd/asd/asd/ads/as/da/sd/as/as/asd/
            file1:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
            file1:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
