Hello everyone,

My question may come from stupidness, so be warned :-)

I am trying to get the perl core documentation, as found on 

http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6/pod/

It is nice, there I can see the online docs, but no ways to get the
offline version as an tarball etc. Either, wget won't also work with
simple params (wget --recursive URL). So, my question[s]:

a) am I too stupid to get it or
b) is O'Reilly hiding offline docs from the user to let them buy the
books (well, perl is open source, its doc not?)

Thanks for your help and patience,

Timo
