I don't always have access to the internet, but I can always view perldoc output as a web page using the following batch file in Windows. It is vastly superior to view perldoc output as a web page, since you can freely navigate within the content instead of scrolling through the content in a command window.

BTW, I am aware that there is an HTML folder in the "C:\Perl" directory where module documentation is stored, but this approach seemed much cleaner and easier, plus this makes the full range of perldoc output available for viewing as a web page.

rem ********************************************
rem * Name: pm.bat
rem * Desc: Display perldoc output as web page.
rem ********************************************
@echo off
perldoc -m %* | pod2html --quiet > "%APPDATA%\perldoc_temp.htm"
del pod2htmd.tmp pod2htmi.tmp
start "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "%APPDATA%\per
+ldoc_temp.htm"

Sample Usage:
pm List::Util

Notes:
1. I use the environment variable %APPDATA% to point to the working directory because it works in both XP and Vista.
2. I have the "-m" option hard-coded in the batch file. This would be better as an option with default value.
3. I use Internet Explorer, but you can modify the batch file to use the browser of your choice.
