74=head1 OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS
75
76=over 8
77
78=item B<-help>
79
80Print a brief help message and exit.
81
82=item B<-man>
83
84Print this command's manual page and exit.
85
86=item B<-exit> I<exitval>
87
88The exit status value to return.
89
90=item B<-output> I<outfile>
91
92The output file to print to. If the special names "-" or ">&1" or ">&STDOUT"
93are used then standard output is used. If ">&2" or ">&STDERR" is used then
94standard error is used.
95
96=item B<-verbose> I<level>
97
98The desired level of verbosity to use:
99
100 1 : print SYNOPSIS only
101 2 : print SYNOPSIS sections and any OPTIONS/ARGUMENTS sections
102 3 : print the entire manpage (similar to running pod2text)
103
104=item B<-pathlist> I<dirlist>
105
106Specifies one or more directories to search for the input file if it
107was not supplied with an absolute path. Each directory path in the given
108list should be separated by a ':' on Unix (';' on MSWin32 and DOS).
109
110=item I<file>
111
112The pathname of a file containing pod documentation to be output in
113usage mesage format (defaults to standard input).
114
115=back
116
117=head1 DESCRIPTION
118
119B<pod2usage> will read the given input file looking for pod
120documentation and will print the corresponding usage message.
121If no input file is specifed than standard input is read.
122
123B<pod2usage> invokes the B<pod2usage()> function in the B<Pod::Usage>
124module. Please see L<Pod::Usage/pod2usage()>.
