in reply to perldoc from Textmate Perl bundle

I haven't used Textmate so I can't give a definitive answer. However, noticing the path /opt/local/bin suggested to me that you might be using MacPorts. If so, take a look in the MacPorts Guide which has documentation relating to setting $PATH, $MANPATH and other environment variables. The section 2.6. MacPorts and the Shell is probably the most directly relevant.

Re^2: perldoc from Textmate Perl bundle

    Thank you.

    That was useful to read, although I didn't find anything there to help TextMate find perldoc.

    I managed to solve the TextMate problem by modifying all refs to the commands "perldoc" and "pod2html" in the TextMate Perl bundle to include the full path "/opt/local/bin/". But it still seems to me that if TextMate can find perltidy in that path, it should be able to find perldoc.
