pod::perldoc::toman
Pod::Perldoc::ToMan(3perl) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Pod::Perldoc::ToMan(3perl)
NAME
Pod::Perldoc::ToMan - let Perldoc render Pod as man pages
SYNOPSIS
perldoc -o man Some::Modulename
DESCRIPTION
This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use Pod::Man and "nroff" for reading Pod pages.
The following options are supported: center, date, fixed, fixedbold, fixeditalic, fixedbolditalic, quotes, release, section
(Those options are explained in Pod::Man.)
For example:
perldoc -o man -w center:Pod Some::Modulename
CAVEAT
This module may change to use a different pod-to-nroff formatter class in the future, and this may change what options are supported.
