Hi,

To the point -> I am actually looking for the entire block which gives me that error/warning.

Here is what people in my office normally do using Windows -> Open up notepad++, search for a warning/error text -> on the first occurrence that is found, we cut that block out and move it to a new file; thereby reducing the overall count in the original file. Every occurrence of that error/warning in the original file, we cut that block out, and paste it under the new file was opened. This way each new file contains only those errors/warnings. This gives us the count of the error messages as well as a sorted output since each new file only contains those particular errors/warnings.

And then when that is done, we do other manual thing of finding the (tab)Institution Number: and the Acquirer Reference: but that is a totally different requirement.

So you what I meant. It's just a long and frustrating way of finding out information which can be repetitive and mistake ridden as well.

Sorry to be throwing all of the information at once. But I am just tired of this manual way. And thanks for all your help

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 unambiguous results, call podchecker with one single argument only.
