- -h Display this help message
- -r Recursive search (slow)
- -i Ignore case
- -t Display pod using pod2text instead of pod2man and nroff
- (-t is the default on win32)
- -u Display unformatted pod text
- -m Display module's file in its entirety
- -l Display the module's file name
- -F Arguments are file names, not modules
- -v Verbosely describe what's going on
- -X use index if present (looks for pod.idx at $Config{archlib})
-
-
- PageName|ModuleName...
- is the name of a piece of documentation that you want to look at. You
- may either give a descriptive name of the page (as in the case of
- `perlfunc') the name of a module, either like `Term::Info',
- `Term/Info', the partial name of a module, like `info', or
- `makemaker', or the name of a program, like `perldoc'.
-
- BuiltinFunction
- is the name of a perl function. Will extract documentation from
- `perlfunc'.
-
- FAQRegex
- is a regex. Will search perlfaq[1-9] for and extract any
- questions that match.
-
- Any switches in the PERLDOC environment variable will be used before the
- command line arguments. The optional pod index file contains a list of
- filenames, one per line.

- =head1 NAME
-
- perldoc - Look up Perl documentation in pod format.
-
- =head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- B<perldoc> [B<-h>] [B<-v>] [B<-t>] [B<-u>] [B<-m>] [B<-l>] [B<-F>] [B<-X>] PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName
-
- B<perldoc> B<-f> BuiltinFunction
-
- B<perldoc> B<-q> FAQ Keyword
-
- =head1 DESCRIPTION
-
- I<perldoc> looks up a piece of documentation in .pod format that is embedded
- in the perl installation tree or in a perl script, and displays it via
- C<pod2man | nroff -man | $PAGER>. (In addition, if running under HP-UX,
- C<col -x> will be used.) This is primarily used for the documentation for
- the perl library modules.
-
- Your system may also have man pages installed for those modules, in
- which case you can probably just use the man(1) command.
-
- =head1 OPTIONS
-
- =over 5
-
- =item B<-h> help
-
- Prints out a brief help message.
-
- =item B<-v> verbose
-
- Describes search for the item in detail.
-
- =item B<-t> text output
-
- Display docs using plain text converter, instead of nroff. This may be faster,
- but it won't look as nice.
-
- =item B<-u> unformatted
-
- Find docs only; skip reformatting by pod2*
-
- =item B<-m> module
-
- Display the entire module: both code and unformatted pod documentation.
- This may be useful if the docs don't explain a function in the detail
- you need, and you'd like to inspect the code directly; perldoc will find
- the file for you and simply hand it off for display.
-
- =item B<-l> file name only
-
- Display the file name of the module found.
-
- =item B<-F> file names
-
- Consider arguments as file names, no search in directories will be performed.
-
- =item B<-f> perlfunc
-
- The B<-f> option followed by the name of a perl built in function will
- extract the documentation of this function from L<perlfunc>.
-
- =item B<-q> perlfaq
-
- The B<-q> option takes a regular expression as an argument. It will search
- the question headings in perlfaq[1-9] and print the entries matching
- the regular expression.
-
- =item B<-X> use an index if present
-
- The B<-X> option looks for a entry whose basename matches the name given on the
- command line in the file C<$Config{archlib}/pod.idx>. The pod.idx file should
- contain fully qualified filenames, one per line.
-
- =item B<PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName>
-
- The item you want to look up. Nested modules (such as C<File::Basename>)
- are specified either as C<File::Basename> or C<File/Basename>. You may also
- give a descriptive name of a page, such as C<perlfunc>. You make also give a
- partial or wrong-case name, such as "basename" for "File::Basename", but
- this will be slower, if there is more then one page with the same partial
- name, you will only get the first one.
-
- =back
-
- =head1 ENVIRONMENT
-
- Any switches in the C<PERLDOC> environment variable will be used before the
- command line arguments. C<perldoc> also searches directories
- specified by the C<PERL5LIB> (or C<PERLLIB> if C<PERL5LIB> is not
- defined) and C<PATH> environment variables.
- (The latter is so that embedded pods for executables, such as
- C<perldoc> itself, are available.) C<perldoc> will use, in order of
- preference, the pager defined in C<PERLDOC_PAGER>, C<MANPAGER>, or
- C<PAGER> before trying to find a pager on its own. (C<MANPAGER> is not
- used if C<perldoc> was told to display plain text or unformatted pod.)
