If you don't know about UNIX manual pages, you're missing out on a lot. Try typing
man latex into your shell. Manual pages should be available for quite a few different commands, utilities, functions, shells, protocols, and system calls. You can also access manual pages on unix.com through the 'man' link in the top bar, though as it turns out, not for latex.

pod2latex
POD2LATEX(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation POD2LATEX(1)
NAME
pod2latex - convert pod documentation to latex format
SYNOPSIS
pod2latex *.pm
pod2latex -out mytex.tex *.pod
pod2latex -full -sections 'DESCRIPTION|NAME' SomeDir
pod2latex -prefile h.tex -postfile t.tex my.pod
DESCRIPTION
"pod2latex" is a program to convert POD format documentation (perlpod) into latex. It can process multiple input documents at a time and
either generate a latex file per input document or a single combined output file.
OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS
This section describes the supported command line options. Minimum matching is supported.
-out
Name of the output file to be used. If there are multiple input pods it is assumed that the intention is to write all translated output
into a single file. ".tex" is appended if not present. If the argument is not supplied, a single document will be created for each
input file.
-full
Creates a complete "latex" file that can be processed immediately (unless "=for/=begin" directives are used that rely on extra
packages). Table of contents and index generation commands are included in the wrapper "latex" code.
-sections
Specify pod sections to include (or remove if negated) in the translation. See "SECTION SPECIFICATIONS" in Pod::Select for the format
to use for section-spec. This option may be given multiple times on the command line.This is identical to the similar option in the
"podselect()" command.
-modify
This option causes the output "latex" to be slightly modified from the input pod such that when a "=head1 NAME" is encountered a
section is created containing the actual pod name (rather than NAME) and all subsequent "=head1" directives are treated as subsections.
This has the advantage that the description of a module will be in its own section which is helpful for including module descriptions
in documentation. Also forces "latex" label and index entries to be prefixed by the name of the module.
-h1level
Specifies the "latex" section that is equivalent to a "H1" pod directive. This is an integer between 0 and 5 with 0 equivalent to a
"latex" chapter, 1 equivalent to a "latex" section etc. The default is 1 ("H1" equivalent to a latex section).
-help
Print a brief help message and exit.
-man
Print the manual page and exit.
-verbose
Print information messages as each document is processed.
-preamble
A user-supplied preamble for the LaTeX code. Multiple values are supported and appended in order separated by "
". See -prefile for
reading the preamble from a file.
-postamble
A user supplied postamble for the LaTeX code. Multiple values are supported and appended in order separated by "
". See -postfile for
reading the postamble from a file.
-prefile
A user-supplied preamble for the LaTeX code to be read from the named file. Multiple values are supported and appended in order. See
-preamble.
-postfile
A user-supplied postamble for the LaTeX code to be read from the named file. Multiple values are supported and appended in order. See
-postamble.
BUGS
Known bugs are:
o Cross references between documents are not resolved when multiple pod documents are converted into a single output "latex" file.
o Functions and variables are not automatically recognized and they will therefore not be marked up in any special way unless instructed
by an explicit pod command.
