Thank you very much, Tom. After I read perldoc perldoc I find the solution to my question: use the -T option. And this is how I do (use CGI POD as an example): C:\> perldoc -T CGI > CGI.txt After that I get a file called CGI.txt at the same directory. Then I open my editor and import CGI.txt. Now I can do what I want. Li __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
