Pod::Perldoc::ToText(3pm)             Perl Programmers Reference Guide             Pod::Perldoc::ToText(3pm)



NAME
       Pod::Perldoc::ToText - let Perldoc render Pod as plaintext

SYNOPSIS
         perldoc -o text Some::Modulename

DESCRIPTION
       This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use Pod::Text as a formatter class.

       It supports the following options, which are explained in Pod::Text: alt, indent, loose, quotes, sen-tence, sentence,
       tence, width

       For example:

         perldoc -o text -w indent:5 Some::Modulename

CAVEAT
       This module may change to use a different text formatter class in the future, and this may change
       what options are supported.
