I use emacs(gnu style) for both my gui(linux and even at home on windows) and command line.
It has code/variable completion(if you want), jump to subroutines via imenu), compiling in line(again..if you want), remote access to files via ftp or scp, total control over highlighting(though cperl-mode is better then perl-mode), etc. No particular reason what I picked it over vim. I just started with it and got over the odd key commands(which I now love..maybe it's an acquired taste).
IDEs are nice but I've seen too many people rely on the IDEs to code and think for them instead of doing it themselves.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
