echo `echo ` doesn't echoes anything. And it's logic. But
echo `echo `echo ` ` does echoes "echo". What's the logic of it? the `echo `echo ` inside of the whole (first) echo, echoes nothing, so the first echo have to echo nothing but echoes "echo"

basepods
BASEPODS(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation BASEPODS(1p)
NAME
basepods - print out pod paths for the standard perl manpages
DESCRIPTION
This program uses your configuration's "installprivlib" directory to look up the full paths to those pod pages. Any files in that
directory whose names end in ".pod" will be printed to the standard output, one per line. This is normally used in backticks to produce a
list of filenames for other commands.
EXAMPLES
$ podgrep typeglob `basepods`
$ basepods | grep delt
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5004delta.pod
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5005delta.pod
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perldelta.pod
You can also run this using alternate perl binaries, like so:
$ oldperl -S basepods | grep delt
/usr/lib/perl5/pod/perldelta.pod
$ podgrep -i thread `filsperl basepods | grep delt`
....
