NAME

Pod::Markdown - Convert POD to Markdown

VERSION

version 1.320

SYNOPSIS

    my $parser = Pod::Markdown->new;
    $parser->parse_from_filehandle(\*STDIN);
    print $parser->as_markdown;

DESCRIPTION

This module subclasses Pod::Parser and converts POD to Markdown.
Literal characters in Pod that are special in Markdown (like *asterisks*) are backslash-escaped (except those in verbatim blocks or "C<code>" sections).

METHODS

initialize

Initializes a newly constructed object.

as_markdown

Returns the parsed POD as Markdown. Takes named arguments. If the "with_meta" argument is given a positive value, meta tags are generated as well.

command

Handles POD command paragraphs, denoted by a line beginning with "=".

verbatim

Handles verbatim text.

textblock

Handles normal blocks of POD.

interior_sequence

Handles interior sequences in POD. An interior sequence is an embedded command within a block of text which appears as a command name - usually a single uppercase character - followed immediately by a string of text which is enclosed in angle brackets.

format_header

Formats a header according to the given level.
