Hi Brad, Brad Bowman schrieb:
It seems like the pp documentation is no longer accessible in some ways on my installs. On linux:
[...]
$ man pp $ pp --help
[both not working] [...]
perldoc pp still works on both platforms. I'm not certain that things have ever been different, by the way.
[working]
this is due to moving all the logic and docs that resided in the pp script to a pp.pm file and namespace so that pp would be installable via "cpan pp" which some people might have expected for a long time.
That happened some time ago already. Reason for the behaviour is: perldoc pp looks for pp.pm and finds the docs. man pp (and pp --help) look in the pp script. I suppose fixing pp --help should be simple. I'm not so sure about "man pp". Either way, there should at least be a friendly pointer to "perldoc pp". Patches welcome. ;)
Cheers, Steffen
