Any body here using the perl-support tools available at:

    http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=556

that can help me get a better start using them?

The readme advises you to (after installation):

  Restart gVim/Vim generate the help tags
  
    :helptags ~/.vim/doc
  
  and look at the perlsupport help with
  
    :help perlsupport
  
After doing that I found something called a
  [perlsupport-stub-sub]

Pressing `^]' on it leads me to some more info:

  In normal mode the item 'subroutine' asks for a subroutine name and
  creates a stub subroutine with one parameter
  [...]

But what is meant by `item'... that is a pretty thin description of
what is meant to do to/with `subroutine'.

 :h subroutine <nothing>

Searching on down the page on `subroutine' seems to indicate it can be
inserted somehow... but I'm not getting how it is done.

I had hoped pressing `^]' would lead to a description of how it works.
And I guess someone thought that it does... but I'm not finding the
clear instruction on how to cause this insertion to happen.

I want to be able to insert other starter things to like

 while(){
  _
 }

 if(){
  _  
 }

[...] etc

Where the cursor lands neatly where I put the underscore.

I'm pretty sure perl-support can do all kinds of wonderful things like
that.  But where are the details of how?
