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.

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.
