'deed it does, but I was hoping something from the command line, not from within the shell. Something I can hook up to a script. 'apropos apropos' tells me it is a regex search of the PDL documentation db. Of course, on my computer, /usr/bin/apropos itself is a system level command which searches the "whatis" database, but I am not sure if that is what the pdl shell uses. > > On 1 Sep 2010, at 19:12, P Kishor wrote: > >> Is is possible for me to list *all* the functions available to me in >> my installation of PDL and, possibly, dump them to a text file? >> >> -- >> Puneet Kishor http://www.punkish.org >> Carbon Model http://carbonmodel.org >> Charter Member, Open Source Geospatial Foundation http://www.osgeo.org >> Science Commons Fellow, http://sciencecommons.org/about/whoweare/kishor >> Nelson Institute, UW-Madison http://www.nelson.wisc.edu >> ----------------------------------------------------------------------- >> Assertions are politics; backing up assertions with evidence is science >> ======================================================================= >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Perldl mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl > > -- Puneet Kishor http://www.punkish.org Carbon Model http://carbonmodel.org Charter Member, Open Source Geospatial Foundation http://www.osgeo.org Science Commons Fellow, http://sciencecommons.org/about/whoweare/kishor Nelson Institute, UW-Madison http://www.nelson.wisc.edu ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Assertions are politics; backing up assertions with evidence is science ======================================================================= _______________________________________________ Perldl mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl
