-README for Pod::Escapes
- Time-stamp: "2004-04-27 19:55:10 ADT"
-
-NAME
- Pod::Escapes -- for resolving Pod E<...> sequences
-
-SYNOPSIS
- use Pod::Escapes qw(e2char);
- ...la la la, parsing POD, la la la...
- $text = e2char($e_node->label);
- unless(defined $text) {
- print "Unknown E sequence \"", $e_node->label, "\"!";
- }
- ...else print/interpolate $text...
-
-DESCRIPTION
- This module provides things that are useful in decoding Pod E<...>
- sequences. Presumably, it should be used only by Pod parsers and/or
- formatters.
-
- By default, Pod::Escapes exports none of its symbols. But you can request
- any of them to be exported. Either request them individually, as with `use
- Pod::Escapes qw(symbolname symbolname2...);', or you can do `use
- Pod::Escapes qw(:ALL);' to get all exportable symbols.
-
-[...]
-
-CAVEATS
- On Perl versions before 5.7, Unicode characters with a value over 255 (like
- lambda or emdash) can't be conveyed. This module does work under such early
- Perl versions, but in the place of each such character, you get a "?".
- Latin-1 characters (characters 160-255) are unaffected.

-
-PREREQUISITES
-
-This suite requires Perl 5; I've only used it under Perl 5.004, so for
-anything lower, you're on your own.
-
-Pod::Escapes doesn't use any nonstandard modules.
-
-
-INSTALLATION
-
-You install Pod::Escapes, as you would install any perl module
-library, by running these commands:
-
- perl Makefile.PL
- make
- make test
- make install
-
-If you want to install a private copy of Pod::Escapes in your home
-directory, then you should try to produce the initial Makefile with
-something like this command:
-
- perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/perl
-
-
-DOCUMENTATION
-
-POD-format documentation is included in Escapes.pm. POD is readable
-with the 'perldoc' utility. See ChangeLog for recent changes.
-
-
-MACPERL INSTALLATION NOTES
-
-Don't bother with the makefiles. Just make a Pod directory in your
-MacPerl site_lib or lib directory, and move Escapes.pm into there.
-
-
