faqpods — print out pod paths for the standard perl faqs 💅

Hi bestie! This is FAQPODS(1) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew, and it's here to print out pod paths for the standard perl faqs. Welcome to the group chat 🫶

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Okay so here's the vibe: this program uses your configuration's installprivlib directory to look up the full paths to those pod pages. 👀 Any files in that directory whose names start in perlfaq will be printed to the standard output, one per line. Slay.

This is normally used in backticks to produce a list of filenames for other commands. So yes, it's giving quiet little pipeline icon energy — no cap. 💅

🌸 EXAMPLES 🌸

Here's the classic:

$ podgrep typeglob `faqpods`
....

You can also run this using alternate perl binaries, like so:

$ podgrep -i thread `filsperl faqpods`
....

Go say hi to basepods(1), modpods(1), pods(1), sitepod(1), podpath(1), and stdpod(1). 💖
