NAME

podgrep - grep in pod sections only

SYNOPSIS

podgrep [-i] [-p] [-f] [-h] pattern [ files ... ]

DESCRIPTION

This program searches each paragraph in a pod document and prints each paragraph that matches the supplied pattern. This pod may be mixed with program code, such as in a module.

Options are:

-i
means case insensitive match
-p
means page output though the user's pager. The pager will be primed with an argument to search for the string. This highlights the result.
-f
means format output though the pod2text program.
-h
means check for matches in pod "=head" and "=item" headers alone, and to keep printing podagraphs until the next header is found.

EXAMPLES

     $ podgrep mail `pmpath CGI`
     (prints out podagraphs from the CGI.pm manpage that mention mail)
 
 
     $ podgrep -i destructor `sitepods`
     (prints out podagraphs that mention destructors in the 
      site-installed pods)
 
 
     $ podgrep -i 'type.?glob' `stdpods`
 
 
     (prints out podagraphs that mention typeglob in the
      standard pods)
 
 
     $ podgrep -hpfi "lock" `faqpods`
 
 
     (prints out all podagraphs with "lock" in the headers
     case-insensitively, then then formats these with pod2text, then
     shows them in the pager with matches high-lighted)
 
 
     $ podgrep -fh seek `podpath perlfunc`
     (prints out and formats podagraphs from the standard perlfunc manpage
     whose headers or items contain "seek".)

NOTE

For a pager, the author likes these environment settings (in the login startup, of course):
     $ENV{PAGER} = "less";
     $ENV{LESS}  = "MQeicsnf";
