+=head1 NAME
+
+pl2pm - Rough tool to translate Perl4 .pl files to Perl5 .pm modules.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<pl2pm> F<files>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<pl2pm> is a tool to aid in the conversion of Perl4-style .pl
+library files to Perl5-style library modules.  Usually, your old .pl
+file will still work fine and you should only use this tool if you
+plan to update your library to use some of the newer Perl 5 features,
+such as AutoLoading.
+
+=head1 LIMITATIONS
+
+It's just a first step, but it's usually a good first step.
