I was more looking for a function enumeration more than a man page-like thing. Something like php's documentation that lists out all the possible functions for the module.

That's also the usual way of documenting Perl modules. However, Mr. Stein chose a different approach and my guess is that we should be grateful.

Answer 2

+6 A:

If you have it installed correctly, "perldoc CGI" should do what you want. Sometimes "man CGI" will work as well.

I have no idea why this got a downvote. It's just as correct as the accepted answer, and written simultaneously to it.

Answer 3

+2 A:

What did you google? When I search for "perl cgi" the first hit I get is the CGI.pm module documentation at perldoc.perl.org. You can also see all CPAN documentation on CPAN Search. Once displayed in your browser, it's easy to search.
