I purchased CodeRunner this but have had lots of crashes when writing and running Perl code. I waited for an update, and now have version 1.2, but have the same problem. I would not recommend it for Perl, and from the reviews it looks like Python has the same problem. I won't be testing it again until the next version. I have lost work too many times! It is a great idea, but the implementation is lacking, at least for Perl.
Wow, CodeRunner looks interesting. Too bad the homepage is so bare; it's hard to tell what capabilities it has. How well does it handle multiple files? Do they just open as new windows, and that's all? Is there any option to turn on support for viewing the invisible characters? When previewing Python, does the syntax highlighter handle """ correctly? (Surprisingly, many text editors fail at that.)
