* Trim multiple blank lines above =item in pod files.Nicholas Clark2011-06-221-1/+0
| | | | | | This makes many documents more consistent in their pod formatting. Don't trim blank lines between verbatim blocks and =item, as removing them makes the (raw) pod harder to read.

* Patch for Stratus VOS for extended file namesPaul Green2010-10-061-21/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | The attached 1-line patch to hints/vos.sh defines a C macro that enables support for file names longer than 32 characters on the Stratus OpenVOS port of perl. As there are now some files in the base package whose names exceed 32 chars, this is an important change. This change only applies to OpenVOS (horay for the hints files)! I tested this change on OpenVOS Release 17.0.2ab. I have also updated the .pod files that refer to VOS/OpenVOS.

* * Em dash cleanup in pod/brian d foy2010-01-131-10/+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 Christiansen2010-01-051-17/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>
