The CPAN stuff is for all perl modules. The PDL web site and development is hosted at sf.net. Our web page, http://pdl.perl.org and the equivalent sf.net page contains links to all the PDL docs in HTML form. Similarly, the online perldl help/apropos/?/?? and pdldoc command provide ways to query for documentation. All the PDL installs I have also build the HTML docs as well as part of the build process. Since PDL has some "special" documentation support, generic parsing of the distribution files as in http://search.cpan.org is only partially successful. For the best quality documentation, I recommend PDL web site for internet access and the PDL install docs for local access. --Chris _______________________________________________ Perldl mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl
