Perl Programming Language

The program is completely worthless unless you’re ready to pay for the privilege of actually running your script. It starts you with 0 compilations available. What a joke.

This is pretty far from anything resembling perl. It actually runs on a remote server somewhere? Lol.

Would be at least better to have 1-10 compilations available to see if it really works for the tasks I need. Without that it's useless.

Works fine. Uses online compiler, so it needs internet access to work. No easy way to share code between devices.

Have to buy "compiles" for an interpreted language? Useless...

Just a front end for you to purchase.

I am really happy to have found this app. The ability to edit my PERL program code when away from my computer is really good and I will make use of it often. It requires that I set up the input in advance of running the program and that is a little bit inconvenient but I can work with that ok.

First, I want to say THANKS. I have been looking for a Perl scripting/programming tool for the iPad/iPod since the generation 1 iPod Touch arrived, and here it is... so, thanks. I look forward to improvements. I would like to see improvements to the file system interface, perhaps a directory manager to manage Perl programs and their files. I have not yet tried any file i/o, but my first look didn't find great tools for managing my own .pl files let alone Perl program created files. It is slow; don't expect fast runtimes. I can live with this, as my primary reason for wanting to do Perl on the iPad is for entertainment value on long flights. I would LOVE some form of Dropbox integration so that Perl programs and files written on my Macs and PCs can be shared/sync'd with my iPad whenever I am within range of a data link (WIFI for me). Again, I look forward to seeing a version 2, so keep at it.
