I want to be able to add code to perldoc that kicks in if you're using 
MSWin, and then goes and does something rather better than just piping 
Pod::Text output to more.com.  I don't want the something-better to require 
any components that aren't already in the ActivePerl dist or in all 
MSWindows installs (well, at least all MSWin installs that ActivePerl works 
under).
