perldoc mirror?

[Matt C]

Hello all,

is there an alternate location for the documentation that is up on
perldoc.com? Over the last few weeks it has gone through periods of
timing out on me when trying to search the docs. Can't find a mirror
anywhere...

Cheers

Found as the 10th hit off Google for "perldoc mirror".

You must have an odd definition of "anywhere"...

Yes - your computer.

Hi Paul,

thanks - Dunno how I missed that one, must be tired, although I could
be picky and say its not really a mirror...

I'm surprised that the perldoc.com site isn't widely mirrored to be
honest.

Cheers

Thanks for the reply- I'm on site tho and the box I'm working on has
no docs installed...

It's mirrored on every computer with a complete Perl installation.
The website is redundant.

I'm guessing this is the time to point out that many feel that a perl
installation that's missing its docs is very broken...
