PODCHECKER(1)						 Perl Programmers Reference Guide					     PODCHECKER(1)

NAME
podchecker - check the syntax of POD format documentation files SYNOPSIS
podchecker [-help] [-man] [-(no)warnings] [file ...] OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS
-help Print a brief help message and exit. -man Print the manual page and exit. -warnings -nowarnings Turn on/off printing of warnings. Repeating -warnings increases the warning level, i.e. more warnings are printed. Currently increasing to level two causes flagging of unescaped "<,>" characters. file The pathname of a POD file to syntax-check (defaults to standard input). DESCRIPTION
podchecker will read the given input files looking for POD syntax errors in the POD documentation and will print any errors it find to STDERR. At the end, it will print a status message indicating the number of errors found. Directories are ignored, an appropriate warning message is printed. podchecker invokes the podchecker() function exported by Pod::Checker Please see "podchecker()" in Pod::Checker for more details. RETURN VALUE
podchecker returns a 0 (zero) exit status if all specified POD files are ok. ERRORS
podchecker returns the exit status 1 if at least one of the given POD files has syntax errors. The status 2 indicates that at least one of the specified files does not contain any POD commands. Status 1 overrides status 2. If you want unambigouus results, call podchecker with one single argument only. SEE ALSO
