perldoc has an -m switch, which will bring up your default editor, displaying most module's full source code:

perldoc -m CGI

I believe Perldoc's `-m` switch runs the full source code through the pager, but not into an editor. However, localizing the Perldoc pager environment variable for a single command, like so: `$ PERLDOC_PAGER=/bin/vi perldoc -m CGI` works on my system (Cygwin32).	[reply] [d/l] [select]
