in reply to Re: perldoc PATH
in thread perldoc PATH

Thanks. That works well. Bit slow (I guess because of the recursive search), but works OK.

I am also going to generate 'man' files using pod2man. Is there a similar recursive search for UNIX man command as well.

I also see that you can do a 'man' instead of perldoc for installed perl modules and the man page appears identical to perldoc output. For example

man File::Path perldoc File::Path
generate similar looking output.

I do see that the man files are in a single directory. Does that mean I have to put the 'man' files in a single directory?

Thanks

    Check the docs:
    man man

    As documented in perldoc.
