If you are using a Mac, and like GUIs, then TextMate is my suggestion. It's not a full fledged IDE like Eclipse, but it does have a number of nice features above an beyond a simple editor.
Personally I have found that IDEs are much more useful for more compiled languages like Java, etc. where they take away the headache of manually twiddling with build scripts and tools. The "scripting" languages (Perl, Ruby, Python, etc) all have decent enough command line UIs that wrapping it in an IDE seems overkill (again, this IMO).

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).
