This ability is provided by the +B<Pod::Select> module which is a subclass of B<Pod::Parser>. +B<Pod::Select> provides a method named B<select()> to specify the set of +POD sections to select for processing/printing. B<podselect()> merely +creates a B<Pod::Select> object and then invokes the B<podselect()> +followed by B<parse_from_file()>. + +=head1 SECTION SPECIFICATIONS + +B<podselect()> and B<Pod::Select::select()> may be given one or more +"section specifications" to restrict the text processed to only the +desired set of sections and their corresponding subsections. A section +specification is a string containing one or more Perl-style regular +expressions separated by forward slashes ("/"). If you need to use a +forward slash literally within a section title you can escape it with a +backslash ("\/"). + +The formal syntax of a section specification is: + +=over 4 + +=item + +I<head1-title-regex>/I<head2-title-regex>/... + +=back + +Any omitted or empty regular expressions will default to ".*". +Please note that each regular expression given is implicitly +anchored by adding "^" and "$" to the beginning and end. Also, if a +given regular expression starts with a "!" character, then the +expression is I<negated> (so C<!foo> would match anything I<except> +C<foo>). + +Some example section specifications follow. + +=over 4 + +=item +Match the C<NAME> and C<SYNOPSIS> sections and all of their subsections: + +C<NAME|SYNOPSIS> + +=item +Match only the C<Question> and C<Answer> subsections of the C<DESCRIPTION> +section: + +C<DESCRIPTION/Question|Answer> + +=item +Match the C<Comments> subsection of I<all> sections: + +C</Comments> + +=item +Match all subsections of C<DESCRIPTION> I<except> for C<Comments>: + +C<DESCRIPTION/!Comments> + +=item +Match the C<DESCRIPTION> section but do I<not> match any of its subsections: + +C<DESCRIPTION/!.+> + +=item +Match all top level sections but none of their subsections: + +C</!.+> + +=back + +=begin _NOT_IMPLEMENTED_ + +=head1 RANGE SPECIFICATIONS + +B<podselect()> and B<Pod::Select::select()> may be given one or more +"range specifications" to restrict the text processed to only the +desired ranges of paragraphs in the desired set of sections. A range +specification is a string containing a single Perl-style regular +expression (a regex), or else two Perl-style regular expressions +(regexs) separated by a ".." (Perl's "range" operator is ".."). +The regexs in a range specification are delimited by forward slashes +("/"). If you need to use a forward slash literally within a regex you +can escape it with a backslash ("\/"). + +The formal syntax of a range specification is: + +=over 4 + +=item + +/I<start-range-regex>/[../I<end-range-regex>/] + +=back + +Where each the item inside square brackets (the ".." followed by the +end-range-regex) is optional. Each "range-regex" is of the form: + + =cmd-expr text-expr + +Where I<cmd-expr> is intended to match the name of one or more POD +commands, and I<text-expr> is intended to match the paragraph text for +the command. If a range-regex is supposed to match a POD command, then +the first character of the regex (the one after the initial '/') +absolutely I<must> be an single '=' character; it may not be anything +else (not even a regex meta-character) if it is supposed to match +against the name of a POD command. + +If no I<=cmd-expr> is given then the text-expr will be matched against +plain textblocks unless it is preceded by a space, in which case it is +matched against verbatim text-blocks. If no I<text-expr> is given then +only the command-portion of the paragraph is matched against. + +Note that these two expressions are each implicitly anchored. This +means that when matching against the command-name, there will be an +implicit '^' and '$' around the given I<=cmd-expr>; and when matching +against the paragraph text there will be an implicit '\A' and '\Z' +around the given I<text-expr>. + +Unlike with section-specs, the '!' character does I<not> have any special +meaning (negation or otherwise) at the beginning of a range-spec! + +Some example range specifications follow. + +=over 4 + +=item +Match all C<=for html> paragraphs: + +C</=for html/> + +=item +Match all paragraphs between C<=begin html> and C<=end html> +(note that this will I<not> work correctly if such sections +are nested): + +C</=begin html/../=end html/> + +=item +Match all paragraphs between the given C<=item> name until the end of the +current section: + +C</=item mine/../=head\d/> + +=item +Match all paragraphs between the given C<=item> until the next item, or +until the end of the itemized list (note that this will I<not> work as +desired if the item contains an itemized list nested within it): + +C</=item mine/../=(item|back)/> + +=back + +=end _NOT_IMPLEMENTED_ + +=cut + +############################################################################# + +use strict; +#use diagnostics; +use Carp; +use Pod::Parser 1.04; +use vars qw(@ISA @EXPORT $MAX_HEADING_LEVEL); + +@ISA = qw(Pod::Parser); +@EXPORT = qw(&podselect); + +## Maximum number of heading levels supported for '=headN' directives +*MAX_HEADING_LEVEL = \3; + +############################################################################# + +=head1 OBJECT METHODS + +The following methods are provided in this module.
