* replace bogus non-ASCII dashlike char with -Ricardo Signes2012-03-051-1/+1
| | | | | | This was presumably brought in when I foolishly copied and pasted the output from a version of groff that was over-eager to promote "ugly" ASCII characters to "beautiful" non-ASCII ones.

* Add =encoding utf8 to all core non-ASCII POD files + test scriptÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason2010-05-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It's now possible to run: perl Porting/checkpodencoding.pl To check if the core contains any naughty POD that uses non-ASCII without declaring an encoding. With this patch all the POD in core (except POD tests we're ignoring) has a correct =encoding directive. The script also flags problems in lib/* and cpan/* which aren't being fixed as part of this commit.

* * Em dash cleanup in pod/brian d foy2010-01-131-11/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I looked at all the instances of spaces around -- and in most cases converted the sentences to use more appropriate punctuation. In general, the -- in the perl docs seem to be there only to make really complicated and really long sentences. I didn't look at the closed em-dashes. They probably have the same sentence-complexity problem. I left some open em-dashes in place. Those are the ones used in lists.
* PATCH: minor typo cleanup of pod/ directoryTom Christiansen2010-01-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | These are all in the pod/ directory, and only the first is a code fix. There was also a single lingering ISO 8859-1 encoding that missed the UTF-8 upconvert. The rest are cleanups for typos, some of which seem to have been around for a rather long time: spelling errors, incorrect possessives, and extra, missing, or duplicated words. If you actually read through, I bet you'll realize what sparked this. :) --tom Signed-off-by: Abigail <abigail@abigail.be>
