💖 NAME 💖

Pod::Perldoc::ToPod — bestie, this lil cutie lets Perldoc render Pod as... Pod! 🦋 Yes fr fr, Pod rendering Pod, it's giving mirror-core and we're obsessed.

This one lives in the Perl Programmers Reference Guide, section 3perl, iykyk. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

perldoc -opod Some::Modulename

(okay so that's currently the same as the following, no cap:)

perldoc -u Some::Modulename

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So basically this is a "plug-in" class that lets Perldoc display Pod source as itself! 💅 Pretty Zen, huh? 🌈 Main character energy honestly.

Right now this class works by just filtering out the non-Pod stuff from a given input file. That's it, that's the whole vibe. 🫶
