where to? help debuging perl !!!

[Daria]

Hi.

Please, tell me how can I debug a perl script - I tried to look up any info on it, but everything written about it is not meant for noobs, and I'm drowning in professional lingo.

Can someone tell me step by step a procedure on debugging? Is there any kind of "validator" or something of that type?

I don't know if this is a little simple, but try this "Idiot's Guide":

I believe there is a Perl directive you can use to make it return friendly error messages, but I don't know what it is.
