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. SEE ALSO
