Hi Porter,

I am glad to see i am not the only one working during this bank holiday !
Please forgive my ignorance, but i am not sure to fully understand your answer.

- What do you mean by "Content-type" and how can i change/set that up ?
- True that i do not necessarily need DOC extension. It can be RTF or HTML, or whatever gives same results at the end!

=> I have just tried with RTF (i saved my DOC as RTF), but then i received the email with some junk characters in it...
By the way (and sorry for this "stupid" question) : when i FTP the RTF or HTML file from my Desktop to our UNIX server : shall i use ASCII or Binary ?
I think I tried both (and some error), but please confirm me.

TIA!
Rgds
Chris

Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				  Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf(3pm)

NAME
Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf - let Perldoc render Pod as RTF SYNOPSIS
perldoc -o rtf Some::Modulename DESCRIPTION
This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use Pod::Simple::RTF as a formatter class. This is actually a Pod::Simple::RTF subclass, and inherits all its options. You have to have Pod::Simple::RTF installed (from the Pod::Simple dist), or this module won't work. If Perldoc is running under MSWin and uses this class as a formatter, the output will be opened with write.exe or whatever program is specified in the environment variable "RTFREADER". For example, to specify that RTF files should be opened the same as they are when you double-click them, you would do "set RTFREADER=start.exe" in your autoexec.bat. Handy tip: put "set PERLDOC=-ortf" in your autoexec.bat and that will set this class as the default formatter to run when you do "perldoc whatever". SEE ALSO
