=head1 DESCRIPTION
I<perldoc> looks up a piece of documentation in .pod format that is embedded
Your system may also have man pages installed for those modules, in
which case you can probably just use the man(1) command.
+If you are looking for a table of contents to the Perl library modules
+documentation, see the L<perltoc> page.
+
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 5
The B<-f> option followed by the name of a perl built in function will
extract the documentation of this function from L<perlfunc>.
+=item B<-q> perlfaq
+
+The B<-q> option takes a regular expression as an argument. It will search
+the question headings in perlfaq[1-9] and print the entries matching
+the regular expression.
+
=item B<-X> use an index if present
-The B<-X> option looks for a entry whose basename matches the name given on the
+The B<-X> option looks for an entry whose basename matches the name given on the
command line in the file C<$Config{archlib}/pod.idx>. The pod.idx file should
contain fully qualified filenames, one per line.
+=item B<-U> run insecurely
+
+Because B<perldoc> does not run properly tainted, and is known to
+have security issues, it will not normally execute as the superuser.
+If you use the B<-U> flag, it will do so, but only after setting
+the effective and real IDs to nobody's or nouser's account, or -2
+if unavailable. If it cannot relinquish its privileges, it will not
+run.
+
=item B<PageName|ModuleName|ProgramName>
The item you want to look up. Nested modules (such as C<File::Basename>)
are specified either as C<File::Basename> or C<File/Basename>. You may also
-give a descriptive name of a page, such as C<perlfunc>. You make also give a
-partial or wrong-case name, such as "basename" for "File::Basename", but
-this will be slower, if there is more then one page with the same partial
-name, you will only get the first one.

+Any switches in the C<PERLDOC> environment variable will be used before the
command line arguments. C<perldoc> also searches directories
specified by the C<PERL5LIB> (or C<PERLLIB> if C<PERL5LIB> is not
defined) and C<PATH> environment variables.
(The latter is so that embedded pods for executables, such as
-C<perldoc> itself, are available.)
+C<perldoc> itself, are available.) C<perldoc> will use, in order of
+preference, the pager defined in C<PERLDOC_PAGER>, C<MANPAGER>, or
+C<PAGER> before trying to find a pager on its own. (C<MANPAGER> is not
+used if C<perldoc> was told to display plain text or unformatted pod.)
+
+One useful value for C<PERLDOC_PAGER> is C<less -+C -E>.
