Pod::Strip(3pm) 					User Contributed Perl Documentation					   Pod::Strip(3pm)

NAME

       Pod::Strip - Remove POD from Perl code

SYNOPSIS

	   use Pod::Strip;

	   my $p=Pod::Strip->new;	       # create parser
	   my $podless; 		       # set output string
	   $p->output_string($podless);       # see Pod::Simple
	   $p->parse_string_document($code);   # or some other parsing method
					       #    from Pod::Simple
	   # $podless will now contain code without any POD

DESCRIPTION

       Pod::Strip is a subclass of Pod::Simple that strips all POD from Perl Code.

METHODS

       All methods besides those listed here are inherited from Pod::Simple

       new

       Generate a new parser object.

       replace_with_comments

       Call this method with a true argument to replace POD with comments (looking like "# stripped POD") instead of stripping it.

       This has the effect that line numbers get reported correctly in error messages etc.
