The of-so-usual -h option gives you information on perldoc's ussage:
perldoc [options] PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName...
perldoc [options] -f BuiltinFunction
perldoc [options] -q FAQRegex
....
FAQRegex
is a regex. Will search perlfaq[1-9] for and extract any
questions that match.
So you might try just
perldoc -q file
if that's too long try something more. Say
perldoc -q increment.*file
And you are there.

There is a reason for living. There must be. I've seen it somewhere.
It's just that in the mess on my table ... and in my brain.
I can't find it.
