[problem]
You need help on a specific Perl function or module. Or just a general question.
[/problem]
[solution]
Perl installation comes with its own documentation system.
In this post, I’ll just cover how to invoke the various perl documentation.
Going forward I’ll add posts describing how to create the different types of Perl doco.
[/solution]
[example]
See different Perl areas under the documentation system
perldoc perl
Lookup function name
perldoc -f func name
Display source of module
perldoc -m mod name
Search perl FAQ
perldoc -q pattern
Search entire Perl installation
perldoc -r pattern
[/example]
