Tk::CodeText::Perl \- a Plugin for Perl syntax highlighting
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
Tk::CodeText::Perl inherits Syntax::Highlight::Perl;
.PP
For its limitations see also there.
This module provides extra methods to provide syntax highlighting
for the Perl programming language.
.SH "METHODS"

.IP "\fBhighlight\fR(\fI\f(CI$string\fI\fR);" 4
.IX Item "highlight($string);"
returns a list of string snippets and tags that can be inserted
in a Tk::Text like widget instantly.
.IP "\fBrules\fR(\fI\f(CI$txtwidget\fI\fR,\fI\e@list\fR)" 4
.IX Item "rules($txtwidget,@list)"
sets and returns a reference to a list of tagnames and options.
By default it is set to:
