For a list of all builtin Perl function, type

Code

perldoc perlfunc

For help on a specific function, type

Code

perldoc -f function

where function is the name of the function you need help on.
Example:

Code

mholland@bmdke3 $ perldoc -f lc 
 BAAA09178(1)                    2001-08-27                     BAAA09178(1)

                                 perl v5.6.0 
 
      lc EXPR 
 
      lc      Returns an lowercased version of EXPR.  This is the internal 
              function implementing the `\L' escape in double-quoted 
              strings.  Respects current LC_CTYPE locale if `use locale' in 
              force.  See the perllocale manpage and the utf8 manpage. 
 
              If EXPR is omitted, uses `$_'.

Hope this helps.
