in thread [emacs] perldoc on windows (update)

Thanks, but spawning a browser to show an html-page is already easy, I use it to inspect the POD of the files I'm editing.

Having the perldoc directly in another Emacs pane without switching the application has many advantages:

Additionally does cperl-mode come with more DWIM logic, like cperl-perldoc-at-point which reads the word under the cursor and automatically calls perldoc -f <word> instead of perldoc <word> if it's a function.
