-Pod::Text - convert POD data to formatted ASCII text

-=head1 SYNOPSIS
+package Pod::Text;
- use Pod::Text;
+require 5.004;
- pod2text("perlfunc.pod");
+use Carp qw(carp croak);
+use Exporter ();
+use Pod::Select ();
-Also:
+use strict;
+use vars qw(@ISA @EXPORT %ESCAPES $VERSION);
- pod2text [B<-a>] [B<->I<width>] < input.pod
+# We inherit from Pod::Select instead of Pod::Parser so that we can be used
+# by Pod::Usage.
+@ISA = qw(Pod::Select Exporter);
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
+# We have to export pod2text for backward compatibility.
+@EXPORT = qw(pod2text);
-Pod::Text is a module that can convert documentation in the POD format (such
-as can be found throughout the Perl distribution) into formatted ASCII.
-Termcap is optionally supported for boldface/underline, and can enabled via
-C<$Pod::Text::termcap=1>. If termcap has not been enabled, then backspaces
-will be used to simulate bold and underlined text.

-A separate F<pod2text> program is included that is primarily a wrapper for
-Pod::Text.
-The single function C<pod2text()> can take the optional options B<-a>
-for an alternative output format, then a B<->I<width> option with the
-max terminal width, followed by one or two arguments. The first
-should be the name of a file to read the pod from, or "E<lt>&STDIN" to read from
-STDIN. A second argument, if provided, should be a filehandle glob where
-output should be sent.

+=head1 NAME
+
+Pod::Text - Convert POD data to formatted ASCII text
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Pod::Text;
+ my $parser = Pod::Text->new (sentence => 0, width => 78);
+
+ # Read POD from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
+ $parser->parse_from_filehandle;
+
+ # Read POD from file.pod and write to file.txt.
+ $parser->parse_from_file ('file.pod', 'file.txt');
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Pod::Text is a module that can convert documentation in the POD format (the
+preferred language for documenting Perl) into formatted ASCII. It uses no
+special formatting controls or codes whatsoever, and its output is therefore
+suitable for nearly any device.
+
+As a derived class from Pod::Parser, Pod::Text supports the same methods and
+interfaces. See L<Pod::Parser> for all the details; briefly, one creates a
+new parser with C<Pod::Text-E<gt>new()> and then calls either
+parse_from_filehandle() or parse_from_file().
+
+new() can take options, in the form of key/value pairs, that control the
+behavior of the parser. The currently recognized options are:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item alt
+
+If set to a true value, selects an alternate output format that, among other
+things, uses a different heading style and marks C<=item> entries with a
+colon in the left margin. Defaults to false.
+
+=item indent
+
+The number of spaces to indent regular text, and the default indentation for
+C<=over> blocks. Defaults to 4.
+
+=item loose
+
+If set to a true value, a blank line is printed after a C<=head1> heading.
+If set to false (the default), no blank line is printed after C<=head1>,
+although one is still printed after C<=head2>. This is the default because
+it's the expected formatting for manual pages; if you're formatting
+arbitrary text documents, setting this to true may result in more pleasing
+output.
+
+=item sentence
+
+If set to a true value, Pod::Text will assume that each sentence ends in two
+spaces, and will try to preserve that spacing. If set to false, all
+consecutive whitespace in non-verbatim paragraphs is compressed into a
+single space. Defaults to true.
+
+=item width
+
+The column at which to wrap text on the right-hand side. Defaults to 76.
+
+=back
+
+The standard Pod::Parser method parse_from_filehandle() takes up to two
+arguments, the first being the file handle to read POD from and the second
+being the file handle to write the formatted output to. The first defaults
+to STDIN if not given, and the second defaults to STDOUT. The method
+parse_from_file() is almost identical, except that its two arguments are the
+input and output disk files instead. See L<Pod::Parser> for the specific
+details.
+
+=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item Bizarre space in item
+
+(W) Something has gone wrong in internal C<=item> processing. This message
+indicates a bug in Pod::Text; you should never see it.
+
+=item Can't open %s for reading: %s
+
+(F) Pod::Text was invoked via the compatibility mode pod2text() interface
+and the input file it was given could not be opened.
+
+=item Unknown escape: %s
+
+(W) The POD source contained an C<EE<lt>E<gt>> escape that Pod::Text didn't
+know about.
+
+=item Unknown sequence: %s
+
+(W) The POD source contained a non-standard internal sequence (something of
+the form C<XE<lt>E<gt>>) that Pod::Text didn't know about.
+
+=item Unmatched =back
+
+(W) Pod::Text encountered a C<=back> command that didn't correspond to an
+C<=over> command.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 RESTRICTIONS
+
+Embedded Ctrl-As (octal 001) in the input will be mapped to spaces on
+output, due to an internal implementation detail.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+This is a replacement for an earlier Pod::Text module written by Tom
+Christiansen. It has a revamped interface, since it now uses Pod::Parser,
+but an interface roughly compatible with the old Pod::Text::pod2text()
+function is still available. Please change to the new calling convention,
+though.
+
+The original Pod::Text contained code to do formatting via termcap
+sequences, although it wasn't turned on by default and it was problematic to
+get it to work at all. This rewrite doesn't even try to do that, but a
+subclass of it does. Look for L<Pod::Text::Termcap|Pod::Text::Termcap>.
