The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 2.04 - 2012-09-01

  • built-in functions can again be found without '-f' (thanks Steven Haryanto for the bug report)
  • added heuristic for when the search term contains '::': assume it's a module if the final symbol starts with an uppercase character, assume it's a fully-qualified function otherwise (thanks RWSTAUNER for the bug report)
  • __FILE__, __LINE__ and __PACKAGE__ are found in perlfunc, but __DATA__ and __END__ are found in perldata
  • __DIE__ and __WARN__ are found in perlvar under '%SIG'
  • can find file test functions like -r, -w, -x etc.
  • searching for predefined variables now works with and without the sigil as long as the variable is either a number, the topicalizer or has at least two word characters. So 'INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR', '$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR', 'RS', '$RS' and '$/' all find the same thing.
