Re: Any handy way to read perldoc output

    Is there any handy way to read perldoc output in emacs?
    An i (index) search of emacs manual on `perldoc' showed nothing.

Besides perldoc -t that Xah mentioned, there is a pod2texinfo program
(http://search.cpan.org/~randym/pod2texinfo-1.0/) but it has not been
updated since 1998.  

I personally would very much like to have the main Perl documentation as
a Texinfo manual, but have never been able to spend the time on it.
Just running pod2texinfo did not suffice, it needed work beyond that.
If anyone finds or produces something for the current perl manuals,
please let me know.
