         may either give a descriptive name of the page (as in the case of
         `perlfunc') the name of a module, either like `Term::Info', 
         `Term/Info', the partial name of a module, like `info', or 
         `makemaker', or the name of a program, like `perldoc'.

BuiltinFunction
         is the name of a perl function.  Will extract documentation from
         `perlfunc'.
         
Any switches in the PERLDOC environment variable will be used before the 
command line arguments.

=head1 NAME

perldoc - Look up Perl documentation in pod format.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<perldoc> [B<-h>] [B<-v>] [B<-t>] [B<-u>] [B<-m>] [B<-l>] PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName

B<perldoc> B<-f> BuiltinFunction

=head1 DESCRIPTION

I<perldoc> looks up a piece of documentation in .pod format that is embedded
in the perl installation tree or in a perl script, and displays it via
C<pod2man | nroff -man | $PAGER>. (In addition, if running under HP-UX,
C<col -x> will be used.) This is primarily used for the documentation for
the perl library modules.

Your system may also have man pages installed for those modules, in
which case you can probably just use the man(1) command.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 5

=item B<-h> help

Prints out a brief help message.

=item B<-v> verbose

Describes search for the item in detail.

=item B<-t> text output

Display docs using plain text converter, instead of nroff. This may be faster,
but it won't look as nice.

=item B<-u> unformatted

Find docs only; skip reformatting by pod2*

=item B<-m> module

Display the entire module: both code and unformatted pod documentation.
This may be useful if the docs don't explain a function in the detail
you need, and you'd like to inspect the code directly; perldoc will find
the file for you and simply hand it off for display.

=item B<-l> file name only

Display the file name of the module found.

=item B<-f> perlfunc

The B<-f> option followed by the name of a perl built in function will
extract the documentation of this function from L<perlfunc>.

=item B<PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName>

The item you want to look up.  Nested modules (such as C<File::Basename>)
are specified either as C<File::Basename> or C<File/Basename>.  You may also
give a descriptive name of a page, such as C<perlfunc>. You make also give a
partial or wrong-case name, such as "basename" for "File::Basename", but
this will be slower, if there is more then one page with the same partial
name, you will only get the first one.

=head1 ENVIRONMENT

Any switches in the C<PERLDOC> environment variable will be used before the 
command line arguments.  C<perldoc> also searches directories
specified by the C<PERL5LIB> (or C<PERLLIB> if C<PERL5LIB> is not
defined) and C<PATH> environment variables.
(The latter is so that embedded pods for executables, such as
C<perldoc> itself, are available.)
