Try this: % cat > dosomething.pl =head1 TITLE Thingy - do something =head1 DESCRIPTION =over =item * do_something() does something =cut =begin comment Commented out code. =end comment =cut =item * do_something_else() does something different from C<do_something>. =back =cut ^D % perldoc dosomething.pl # note the lack of the string "Commented out code" So it worked in Perl 5, too. It was just kind of a pain because you had to put a "=cut" after the "=end", and because you had to put paragraph spaces between everything. We're getting rid of both of those restrictions. Luke
