I noticed some automatic man page generation happening while installing some
perl modules from CPAN, and wonder about converting to html...
where do Iread about that documentation converting possibility?

perldoc perlsub makes a man page version that i can scroll through with vi 
commands, but some cut and pastable HTML would be nice for excerpting
and making a cheat sheet for myself.   (The making is part of the learning 
process--then you don't have to read it anymore once you've written it for 
yourself...)
