basepods - print out pod paths for the standard perl manpages
DESCRIPTION
This program uses your configuration's "installprivlib" directory
to look up the full paths to those pod pages. Any files in that
directory whose names end in ".pod" will be printed to the standard
output, one per line. This is normally used in backticks to produce
a list of filenames for other commands.
EXAMPLES
$ podgrep typeglob `basepods`
$ basepods | grep delt
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5004delta.pod
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5005delta.pod
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perldelta.pod
You can also run this using alternate perl binaries, like so:
$ oldperl -S basepods | grep delt
/usr/lib/perl5/pod/perldelta.pod
