+4  Q: 

Is there a Perl plugin for IntelliJ?

What do people do when they want to write Perl in IntelliJ? I haven't seen any plugins that add language support. Does anyone have any experience writing language plugins for IntelliJ? Is it hard? Could I take an existing plugin and change it to make it support Perl? Any suggestions?

+2  A: 

Currently I believe there is no Perl plugin for IntelliJ.

The IntelliJ website has several tutorials on how to write plugins. They also have a special sections that is devoted to developing language plugins.

I have no idea how hard it would be, but you would definitely learn a lot.

I would guess that modifying an existing plugin would probably just create a mess, but that's just a guess.
