Pod::Functions#

Group Perl’s functions a la perlfunc.pod

SYNOPSIS#

use Pod::Functions;

my @misc_ops = @{ $Kinds{ 'Misc' } };
my $misc_dsc = $Type_Description{ 'Misc' };

or

perl /path/to/lib/Pod/Functions.pm

This will print a grouped list of Perl’s functions, like the “Perl Functions by Category” in perlfunc section.

DESCRIPTION#

It exports the following variables:

  • This holds a hash-of-lists. Each list contains the functions in the category the key denotes.

  • In this hash each key represents a function and the value is the category. The category can be a comma separated list.

  • In this hash each key represents a function and the value is a short description of that function.

  • In this hash each key represents a category of functions and the value is a short description of that category.

  • @Type_Order

    This list of categories is used to produce the same order as the “Perl Functions by Category” in perlfunc section.
