A really easy way of getting help with a special variable, a function, 
or a module is to use the Help menu in MacPerl.   For example, 
open a new window in MacPerl, type $_, and then choose 
Perl Help from the Help menu (command-H).  MacPerl launches Shuck
and looks up $_ for you.

If you don't know exactly what function or variable to use, the
Help menu also lists several documents to check.


Many thanks to Matthias or whomever implemented this!!
