# A bash completion helper for perldoc

Check [the back story][1] if you want the details about this.

Using it as as simple as saving it somewhere in your `$PATH`

and adding the following line to your `.bashrc`:

    complete -C perldoc-complete -o nospace -o default perldoc

Or do as I do, and add the following *two* lines:

    alias pod=perldoc

    complete -C perldoc-complete -o nospace -o default pod

That’s all; now you can hit the Tab key at some point after

typing `perldoc` or `pod` and get some sensible suggestions.

Or hit the Tab key just to browse your module library.

Have fun.
