Hi, Here's a patch that adds a short description to the NAME man section to the modules that miss it. It seems all of them are under Perl::Critic::Policy so I've added the same short description to all of them. Example follows. Before: Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitBooleanGrep After (may get wrapped): Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitBooleanGrep - Perl::Critic policy module If you prefer something else than "Perl::Critic policy module" I'll adapt the patch. Thanks, dam

Subject: Add description to NAME section in all Policy docs
Actually, this give me an idea... We could move the short descriptions in the PolicySummary.pod to the NAME section in each Policy doc. Then we could use the existing framework for extracting the docs to add to the output of "perlcritic -list". We could also add a new Violation formatting metacharacter (such as "%D") that would expand to this short description.
Elliot has fixed this by using the descriptions from the PolicySummary.pod file in the NAME section of documentation for each Policy.
