PODVIEW(1)

💖 PODVIEW(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for PODVIEW(1) — it’s giving tiny GUI energy and we’re obsessed. ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

podview — a graphical pod viewer. Literally the main character of “open POD file, see docs.” 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It’s a small GUI browser for POD-formatted files. You hand it either a file path or a perl module name (f.ex. File::Copy) as a command line argument, and it displays the documentation found. no cap, that’s the whole vibe. 🫶

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• perlpod — the Plain Old Documentation format, iconic.
• Prima — the perl graphic toolkit the viewer is based on.
• Prima::HelpViewer — menu commands explained.
• "Adding help to your program" in Prima::tutorial — how to add help content.

👑 AUTHORS 👑

• Dmitry Karasik <dmitry@karasik.eu.org> — author, slay.
