ABOUT EXTENDING POD

TODO: An example or two of =extend, then point to Pod::Simple::Subclassing

ASK ME!

If you actually want to use Pod as a format that you want to render to XML (particularly if to an XML instance with more elements than normal Pod has), please email me ("sburke@cpan.org") and I’ll probably have some recommendations.

For reasons of concision and energetic laziness, some methods and options in this module (and the dozen modules it depends on) are undocumented; but one of those undocumented bits might be just what you’re looking for.

Pod::Simple, Pod::Simple::Text, Pod::Spell
