Respected Monks,

While searching for a good Perl Syntax Checking Plugin, I came across "Syntastic".

It can be installed through github like so:

C:\Users\pmu\vim\vimfiles\bundle>git clone https://github.com/scrooloo
+se/syntastic

Please change the path accordingly to ensure that you are inside the bundle folder while running the "git clone" command

Please check the path for "g:syntastic_perl_lib_path" variable. In my case its at "C:\my32bitperl\perl\lib\" because I am using Strawberry Perl Portable (5.16.3) which is extracted to the my32bitperl folder.

Hope this helps someone. In case you need my entire _vimrc, I will gladly put it up here.

Updated let g:syntastic_perl_lib_path= 'C:\my32bitperl\perl\lib\'. Replaced " with '.
