( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

As an additional means of accessing the locally installed Perl documentation, I would suggest Slaven Rezic's Tk::Pod and the tkpod program that comes with it.

Tk applications might look a little old-fashioned to most, but I found this tool to be valuable.

Instructions:

  • Install Tk::Pod (using PPM or from CPAN using "cpan")
  • Install perlindex the same way. If installing via CPAN, you should type "cpan Text::English". (perlindex might be what you're looking for anyway.)
  • Run "perlindex -index" (wait).
  • Run "tkpod".
  • Select "Search Fulltext" from the "Search" menu.
  • Type the keyword.
  • Enjoy

Cheers,
Steffen

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
