💖 PDLCommands 💖

okay bestie, this is the manual page for PDLCommands from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section (3pm, perl module vibes), and it's genuinely such a cute little quality-of-life situation, no cap. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

PDL::Perldl2::Plugin::PDLCommands — the plugin that implements all the perldl aliases and escapes 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this plugin is the one that implements the various convenience features of the perldl shell. like, "roughly" speaking, these are aliases plus some structured pre-processing of the command line you entered. lowkey iconic of it.

here's the whole menu of what it does 🍓

  • q, x, exit, quit — all of these are shortcuts to quit the shell. four ways to say bye, we love options 💖
  • ?? — an alias for apropos
  • ? — an alias for help
  • Autoquoting — for the arguments to help, usage, apropos, sig, badinfo, and demo ✨
  • $PERLDL::ESCAPE — when you put this at the start of a command line, you escape out to the shell. it defaults to "#" 🫶
ngl bestie, that $PERLDL::ESCAPE one is giving "secret trapdoor" energy and I'm obsessed 😭💜
