Just wanted to add something more:
  1. First do %man perl
    Here you'll see the different perl manuals you can read.
  2. Second do what footpad told you. Do %man perldoc
    Learn this command! You can get information about perlfunctions, commands,... Just like the supersearch on PM.
  3. Last but not least. Don't trust all the resources on the web. Hence Matt's script archive :)
So the best advise is. Try it first on your own. What you can get on perlmonks is: or a general direction how you can solve something or a solution of a problem you stumbled across when programming something. But don't expect complete out of the box solutions!
