Re^2: link to perl documentation

The "known function" auto-handling is a bit unfortunate here, as "open" is already a documentation page: https://perldoc.pl/open (the post is failing if I linkify this)

Because of the search "auto-redirect" going to one or the other, the "did you mean?" snippet at the top of the page was added for pages with the same name (notably also if, socket, fcntl).

It is indeed unfortunate, but there is still the alternative to either link directly to a pragma https://perldoc.perl.org/open.html or to choose the cpan version via `[mod://]` open my personal preference would be to allow any URI being pasted directly and being auto-transformed into internal markup. I suppose you are one of the maintainers of perldoc.pl, please consider signing in into perlmonks or at least signing the posts to facilitate longer discussions.
