[prog] Perl reference

[Sue Stones]

Let me see how much I can remember of this, there is a special perl
documentation tool called pearldoc and I think that you can type perldoc
perldoc to find out how to use it.

I can't remember more than that, but a quick search on google produced this
site
http://www.perldoc.com/
which looks like an extremely useful resource, without going past the first
page!
