A starting place maybe Perl Best Practices by Damian Conway:

The perltidyrc file can e found here:
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=485885

I also found this nice thread with some ideas, inc some code that causes
emacs to auto-perltidy everything you use cperl-mode with. I don't use
emacs myself, ut here's the link if anyone is interested:
