Re^7: NEW [doc://perldoc#deeplink] works now with all perldocs

I had also given anonymonk an upvote. See my update.

Re changing to "perldoc.pl". I've been using "perldoc.perl.org" for so long, possibly a couple of decades, that it's become like an old, favourite jumper: a bit frayed around the edges, a few holes here and there, but I still like to wear it. I definitely like the the A-Z function and module searches it provides which "perldoc.pl" doesn't have. Also, given it's being revamped at the moment, I think we should give it a bit longer before dismissing it.

> changing to "perldoc.pl". I think this should be it's own thread. Others like choroba are more qualified to argue, because this discussion is at least a year old. personally I liked the old interface at perldoc.perl.org better I was told the maintainers are not responsive perldoc.pl allows easily to pick deeplinks, that is a killer feature The maintainer of perldoc.pl asked here for feature requests > I had also given anonymonk an upvote. I'm not sure if he's happy if we fix this! ;-) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

I did recall that there was a discussion about "perldoc.pl" some time ago. I wasn't trying to reignite discussion here with a Re^7 OT comment; just responding to "Probably we should also reconsider switching to http://perldoc.pl". — Ken	[reply]
