I want the full IDE integration without needing to switch to the console and copy and paste the name of the doc. update and perldoc is using Win's `\|more` as pager, which is quite ... "rudimentary".

Regarding the update: To get around the Win 'more', you can invoke 'M-x shell-command perldoc ...' to get the results in an emacs buffer. No console required, but either copypasting names or wrapping shell-command into an emacs macro are needed.	[reply]

yeah , thanks,I know. :) I stole some code from Emacs::PDE which does it with `pod2man` and `woman.el` , this solves most issues. I also try to avoid the console and use `eshell` inside emacs instead, perldoc works there flawlessly. A third option might be to load the raw POD code and to switch to pod-mode. (didn't try this yet) I didn't start this thread because I don't have workarounds, but because I think that there should be a drop in replacement such that the logic and bindings in cperl-mode continue to work seamlessly.
