NAME

pfgrep - grep out function definitions from perlfunc

DESCRIPTION

This program uses podgrep program to search your configuration's perlfunc for function definitions. It honors a -f flag to format through pod2text and a -p flag to send the output through the pager. (Actually, it just passes these to podgrep.)

EXAMPLES

     $ pfcat seek
     (find all seek functions (including sysseek))
 
     $ pfcat -pf sprintf
     (sprintf function is formated and sent to pager)
 
     $ pfcat -f '\bint\b'
     /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perlfunc.pod chunk 506
     int EXPR
     int
 
     Returns the integer portion of EXPR. If EXPR is omitted, uses
     `$_'. You should not use this for rounding, because it truncates
     towards `0', and because machine representations of floating point
     numbers can sometimes produce counterintuitive results. Usually
     `sprintf()' or `printf()', or the `POSIX::floor' or `POSIX::ceil'
     functions, would serve you better.
 
 

You can also run this using alternate perl binaries, like so:

     $ oldperl -S pfcat open
     ....
