Stuff with the Perl Foundation. A couple of patches in the Perl core. A few CPAN modules. That about sums it up.

Integrate Perldoc with VIM
If you're primarily a Perl hacker and don't use C much, you might find it annoying when you hit 'K' in command mode. That's because VIM runs something like this:
nmap K
:Map <cword><cr>
I've just added the following to my
noremap K
:!perldoc <cword> <bar><bar> perldoc -f <cword><cr>
Now when you type 'K' in command mode, it will call up the appropriate perldoc, if possible.
I really should have added that to Perl Hacks. Damn.

Perl specific remapping (Score:1)
If filetype plugin is turned on this also works:
autocmd FileType perl :noremap K :!perldoc <cword> <bar><bar> perldoc -f <cword><cr>
And then K should still work as it did before when working with non-perl sources

Nice point! I do have the filetype plugin enabled. Thanks :)

The canonical way to do this (Score:1)
If the
perldoc -f || perldocbehaviour matters, the preferrable way to do it is to plug a shell script that works that way intokeywordprg, which offers the bonus that you will have it available on the shell as well. If you really must, though, you can do it as a less than pretty one-liner:collecting such tricks? (Score:2)

(two colons)
Re: (Score:1)
Then vim will consider colons word characters for the purposes of cword.

Oh, I have something analogous to that embedded in my vim stuff. I stole that trick from Damian.
