Since it's in our policy to have this compression I completely agree perldoc should support compressed .pod files. By the way, the mentioned bug report is #53920. If you want I can reassign that one to perl-doc and merged it with this one. Thanks, Ardo -- System Information Debian Release: testing/unstable Kernel Version: Linux rohan 2.2.18 #1 Fri Feb 23 21:24:57 CST 2001 i686 unknown
