6 basepods - print out pod paths for the standard perl manpages
7
9 This program uses your configuration's "installprivlib" directory to
10 look up the full paths to those pod pages. Any files in that directory
11 whose names end in ".pod" will be printed to the standard output, one
12 per line. This is normally used in backticks to produce a list of
13 filenames for other commands.
14
16 $ podgrep typeglob `basepods`
17
18 $ basepods | grep delt
19 /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5004delta.pod
20 /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5005delta.pod
21 /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perldelta.pod
22
23 You can also run this using alternate perl binaries, like so:
24
25 $ oldperl -S basepods | grep delt
26 /usr/lib/perl5/pod/perldelta.pod
27
28 $ podgrep -i thread `filsperl basepods | grep delt`
29 ....
