DESCRIPTION

This program uses Pod::Markdown to convert POD into Markdown sources.

UTF-8 is the default output encoding if no encoding options are specified (see ``OPTIONS'').

It accepts two optional arguments:

• input pod file (defaults to "STDIN")
• output markdown file (defaults to "STDOUT")

OPTIONS

--html-encode-chars

A list of characters to encode as HTML entities. Pass a regexp character class, or 1 to mean control chars, high-bit chars, and "<&>"'".

See ``html_encode_chars'' in Pod::Markdown for more information.

--match-encoding (-m)

Use the same "=encoding" as the input pod for the output file.

--output-encoding (-e)

Specify the encoding for the output file.

--utf8 (-u)

Alias for "-e UTF-8".
