NAME Pod::Cpandoc - perldoc that works for modules you don't have installed SYNOPSIS cpandoc Acme::BadExample -- works even if you don't have Acme::BadExample installed! cpandoc -v '$?' -- passes everything through to regular perldoc cpandoc -tT Acme::BadExample | grep -i acme -- options are respected even if the module was scraped vim `cpandoc -l Web::Scraper` -- getting the idea yet? SNEAKY INSTALL cpanm Pod::Cpandoc then: alias perldoc=cpandoc or: function perldoc () { cpandoc "$@" } Now `perldoc Acme::BadExample` works! "perldoc" should continue to work for everything that you're used to, since "cpandoc" passes all options through to it. "cpandoc" is merely a subclass that falls back to scraping a CPAN index when it fails to find your queried file in @INC. SEE ALSO The sneaky install was inspired by .
