=head1 SYNOPSIS
pod2text [B<-aclost>] [B<--code>] [B<-i> I<indent>] S<[B<-q> I<quotes>]>

+ S<[B<-w> I<width>]> [I<input> [I<output> ...]]
pod2text B<-h>
either termcap sequences or ANSI color escape sequences to format the text.
I<input> is the file to read for POD source (the POD can be embedded in
-code). If I<input> isn't given, it defaults to STDIN. I<output>, if given,
-is the file to which to write the formatted output. If I<output> isn't
-given, the formatted output is written to STDOUT. Several POD files can be
-processed in the same B<pod2text> invocation (saving module load and compile
-times) by providing multiple pairs of I<input> and I<output> files on the
-command line.
