Hello,

I believe the following minor change may help new users / browsers of
perlfaq.pod make better use of the perlfaq:

    Add quick note to perlfaq main page about searching the perlfaq

diff --git a/pod/perlfaq.pod b/pod/perlfaq.pod

        $ perldoc perlfaq

+or search the L<perlfaq> question headings:

+       $ perldoc -q open

 Besides your local system, you can find the perlfaq on the web, including
 at http://perldoc.perl.org/ .
