Re: Searching POD documentation on windoz

I use Komondo on my home machine for programming... (work it's all vi but that really isn't the point)

With Activeperl, if it is installed properly (and if you did the exe it should be) perldoc still works from the command line.

Simply do: start -> run -> cmd ->
perldoc -f print

Everything else it's internet search engines. search.cpan.org is always your friend.

Somewhat off topic, but you should try the new Komodo 4 beta. I'm in your situation (vim at work, Komodo at home), and the vi keybindings in Komodo 4 are great (though incomplete).	[reply]

Hi, Maybe you should try Vim with perlsupport (plugin for vim: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=556). With Vim you have variuos plugins (I recommend: perlsupport, taglist, perlcomp, minibufexpl, AutoFold, NERD_comments) that will make your life easier at writing/debbuging perl code. Screenshots here. Key bindings are a little bit different from usual windows editors, but once learned they'll prove very usefull if you work in a mixed environment (I work with Windows, Solaris, HPUX, Linux - and I use vim/vi on each to edit text files). Another big advantage is that you don't have to pay (or worse - use without paying) for Komodo or other commercial IDE.	[reply]
