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 spec- ified in the environment variable "RTFREADER". For example, to specify that RTF files should be opened the same as they are when you dou- ble-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".
