API index idea

[Jonathan Vanasco-5]

What do people think of an API function index?

it would be listed off
        http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/index.html

and just have a listing of every API class , and the names of the  
class methods -- with hotlinks to the class data.

this way people can just find the right class by the method name  
(which i tend to need more often than i'd like)

You can use ModPerl::MethodLookup for that:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/ModPerl/MethodLookup.html

   perl -MModPerl::MethodLookup -e print_method some_method_name

A web index would be fine too, but it would be nice if it could be
auto-generated to reduce maintenance.
