podviewer - a Gtk2-Perl POD Reading Program
podviewer [FILE|MODULE|FUNCTION|POD]
"podviewer" provides a simple and attractive
way to read Perl's POD documentation. You can use it to read the Perl POD
pages, module documentation and information about Perl's builtin functions.
"podviewer" supports a wide number of keyboard
shortcuts. They are documented here.
- "Ctrl-U" or
"Alt-Up"
Go up a level. That is, if you're reading the documentation
for "Foo::Bar", typing
"Ctrl-U" will take you to the
"Foo" page.
- "Alt-Left"
Go back in your browsing history.
- "Alt-Right"
Go forward in your browsing history.
- "Ctrl-H"
Go home. If you have the
"home" option set in your config (see
below), entering "Ctrl-H" will take
you there.
- "Ctrl-L"
This toggles the document index.
- "Ctrl-O"
This pops up a dialog allowing you to choose a document to
read.
- "Ctrl-R" or
"F5"
This reloads the current document.
- "Ctrl-Q"
This quits the program.
- "Ctrl-F"
This pops up a dialog for you to enter some search text.
- "Ctrl-G"
This performs the previous search, but from the most recently
found result. You can also repeat the previous search by pressing enter
when the cursor is in the search box.
- "F1"
Loads this document.
"podviewer" stores its configuration settings
in a resource file, located at
"$HOME/.podviewrc". This file contains
simple "name=value" pairs for various
things:
- "icon-size"
If you want to change the size of the icons on the toolbar,
change this value. The values are standard Gtk+ stock values.
- "home"
This is the name of the document you want to be your home
page. This page is loaded when you start the program without arguments,
hit the Home button, or type
"Ctrl-H".
