Bug Reporting
Use a good error catcher (like BugSack from files.wowace.com) and provide the full error text, and give as much information as possible to recreate the problem. Don't assume I know what you're talking about with some three word report.
Either post a message on this page, or use the Curse Ticketing System (linked just above).
Introduction
Perl, with Extra stuff. Much enchanced from Nymbia's Perl UnitFrames, and a complete replacement for Blizzard's default unit frames, including raid frames and raid tools, with little remaining of the original Nymbia code.
Range Finder (combined with optional health check and/or debuff check) for all frames based on spell or item range test.
HoT Monitor will highlight units clearly that have your own active Heal over Time spells. Regardless of how many other heal over time buffs are on the raid members, you can keep track of your own ones and when they expire.
Debuff Highlighting in standard debuff colours on all friendly frames. Priority given to show debuffs that you can cure first.
Raid Frames, buff icons, MT list units and some other portions or X-Perl are Created on demand. Saving a lot of time and memory at system startup. Defering the creation of many parts of X-Perl to when they are actually required. And of course, most often outside of raids they are never required and are never created.
Raid Target icon support for Target, Target's Target, MT Targets.
Raid Tooltip will show combat rezzers available (druids with Rebirth ready (or very soon available) and any normal rezzers out of combat) if you bring up tooltip of a dead person.
In-combat indicators for all units.
3D Portraits for player, pet, target, focus, party. Optional. Of course this may degrade your framerate somewhat because you are displaying more 3D character models that without this option. But some like it pretty, and it does look cool.
Red and Green combat flashes for frames when player, pet, target, party, partypets, raid take damage/heals. Useful indication of things happening.
Added time left on party member/target buffs/debuffs when in a raid, these depend somewhat on CTRA/oRA/oRA2 sending appropriate information over the addon channel, although some of it can be determined at run time by X-Perl, when a player gets a buff for example, we know how long it should last, and therefor when it should expire.
Totally new options window including all X-Perl options and access via minimap icon.
Configurable colours for borders and backgrounds. Including class coloured names, and configurable reaction colours.
Much care has been taken with code size, memory load, memory usage per cycle and so on. LuaProfiler/OnEvent mods used extensively and regularly to ensure that X-Perl does not do more work than is absolutely necessary.
Assists View
Will show anyone from raid assising you with your target, and can also show healers or all plus known enemies targetting you.
Tooltips for the same also available (on player and target frames) if you prefer to not use the main window.
MT Targets
Replaces CTRA/oRA2 MT Targets window, and doubles as a replacement for the Perl RaidFrames warrior targets.
Indicator shows which target you are on.
Frames will be coloured to show if tanks have duplicate targets.
Casting Monitor
(WORK IN PROGRESS)
Shows selected classes (defaults to healer classes) in a list (much like the MT List), but with some differences.
Shows mana bars and cast bars on left. Their targets on right. Health bar as normal, but a secondary small red bar on targets which shows the maximum single hit this unit has received since entering combat. The secondary bar will extend downwards from their current HP level down to as far as zero.
A green name on the targets indicates this is the same target that you have. You can click on casters or their targets as expected.
For druids, right clicking on a caster will cast Innervate on them.
For shamans, right clicking on a caster will cast Mana Tide Totem. Check the * indicator to see if they're in your group.
All bars can be re-sized in X-Perl main options (Monitor section).
Totals can be toggled (from the 'T' minibutton at top of frame) which gives overview of raid mana status.
Raid Admin
(WORK IN PROGRESS)
Save/Load raid roster setups Only does direct save and load for the moment, but more to come (templates and such).
Item Check
Replacement for /raitem /radur /raresist /rareg. Use the old commands before, or drop items in the left item list.
Query button will perform /raitem on all ticked items (query always includes dur and resists) and you can then view and review all the results whenever, without having to re-query each item.
Includes everyone in raid, so you don't have to work out who doesn't have items, it'll list them with 0 instead of no entry.
Active Scanner to check raid member's equipment for the item selected. So you can be sure that people actually have the item worn (Onyxia Cloak for example), without having to go round single target inspecting everyone who 'forgot' to install CTRA for the 50th raid in a row.
Grim Reaper
The Grim Reaper remembers the most recent combat events for each unit in the party or raid, so that you may mouse over someone and immediately see the kind of damage/healing they took prior to death.
/grim for options
Right click Reaper for menu (when un-docked)
Alt-Mousewheel to scale the reaper window (when un-docked)

Farmbuyer saidWhere should we report bugs for Grim Reaper, now that it's no longer bundled with X-Perl?
I know to get the most recent version of GR from wowace (or use one of their updaters), but there's no addon page for GR at the wowace wiki, and no bug-report or discussion thread for it on the wowace forums. Nothing turned up at wowinterface either.

MadSprayerDK saidAs a druid i have seen that the player information expand when i change form, in order to show the rage/enegy bar and mana bar. But when in form the mana bar is not updating, and if you shift out and then in to a form again it still show the value from the frist time you shifted in to a form.
Otherwise is it a great mod :)

Executioning saidI really like this addon! frees up some space, and makes it easier to see now. 2 minor problems, I keep getting this very annoying error that says "...dOns\XPerl_CustomHighlight\XPerl_CustomHightlight.lua:213: attempt to index upvalue 'conf' (a nil value) ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY it spawns continuously when i am in a raid (battlegrounds so far) When i am alone it is fine, Not sure about party though. Second problem is, How do i shink the buffs on my party members side? Other than that i really like it! Awesome!

TehNextgen saidOther people said it before but Xperl without Target of Target makes this version pretty useless. I used it before I got xperl and i've always used it with older versions of xperl and all of the sudden it's gone =\
Bring back target of target!

seotyeknom saidI also have no target of target with the updated version, and I've uninstalled x-perl because of this. =/ I did enable target of target, and it reloads the UI without it. My other computer has the older version, which works fine. I'd love to be able to use this add on again!

naxxramasking saidin the party tab on the left hand side there should be something called "spacing" and you can adjust the spacing between party members to allow you to see all buffs with out them overlapping the party member frame. Should be the same in the German version as it is in the English version.
