Perl syntax highlighting in Sublime Text 3

I’m currently writing a project in Perl for a client and have discovered that the default Perl syntax highlighting in Sublime Text is terrible.

Fortunately, the community has stepped up and Blaise Roth has created the ModerlPerl package. Install via Package Control.

To get all Perl files to open with the new syntax highlighter, use View > Syntax > Open all with current extension as… and select ModernPerl from the sub-menu.
