) This thread is about local POD, so no CSS, no JS, no speed problems, no images

Hm.

  1. No CSS:
    <html> <!-- saved from url=(0017)http://localhost/ --> <head> <title>ActivePerl User Guide</title> <meta name="Author" content="ActiveState"> <meta name="AppleTitle" content="ActivePerl 5.10.1.1007 Help"> <script language="JavaScript" src="tocTab.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" src="tocParas.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" src="displayToc.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Active.css">

    And very useful it is too. To be able to tailor *all* the POD on my set up to my preferences--fonts; sizes; colors--with simple changes in *one* place.

  2. No JS:

    Wouldn' t it be nice to be able to (say) double-click (or Ctrl-Alt-Meta-Meta-f) a function/method name in the POD and be taken directly to the module source for that function/method?

  3. No images:

    And no amount of words will ever be a substitute for a few simple pictures.

I guess the only lesson here is that you hate my way of working as much as I hate yours.


Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
