Subject: Feature request : There should be a feature where we can search documentation of a language and not the code snippets
For example,

I wanted to search what $? means in perl. If I use regular google
search I don't get any relevant results. If I use google code search I
get only code snippets. What is really want is that I want to search
$? among the documentation regarding perl.

Please see if this feature can be added or if there is already a way
of doing this, please let me know how

-Rakesh

Documentation isn't code. Shouldn't you be doing a regular google
search for that?

Yes, but in regular google search , try searching for $? . You won't
get any relevant results. I tried and I dint get any.

I did a quick search for "perl" + "$?". The fourth hit on the page was
a doc-page titled "PERL - Special Variables" where you can see that $?
is documented as:

The status returned by the last pipe close, backtick(``) command or
system operator. Note that this is the status word returned by the wait
() system call, so the exit value of the subprocess is actually ($?

>>*). $? & 255 gives which signal, if any, the process died from, and

whether there was a core dump.

This took me less than 20 seconds.
