No deal. That would ban young users from reading the docs.
Then again, they never read any docs. Heck, if it doesn't work like
you want it to, patch it (right, Chris? :) )

Back on topic, I think a man page is a good idea. I have the Perl 5
html docs which have been converted from pod and I must tell you it
works like a charm. Hyperlinked, formatted et al. After all, the pod
format has been specifically design for documentaion.
