Pod::Simple is a Perl library for parsing text in the Pod ("plain

|
old documentation") markup language that is typically used for
|
|
writing documentation for Perl and for Perl modules. The Pod format
|
|
is explained in the perlpod man page; the most common formatter is
|
|
called "perldoc".
|
|
|
|
Pod formatters can use Pod::Simple to parse Pod documents into
|
|
produce renderings of them in plain ASCII, in HTML, or in any number
|
|
of other formats. Typically, such formatters will be subclasses of
|
|
Pod::Simple, and so they will inherit its methods, like parse_file.
