NAME
       pod2docbook - Convert POD data to DocBook SGML

SYNOPSIS
       pod2docbook [--help] [--doctype=article|chapter|section|refentry]
       [--title=title] [--spaces=# spaces per indent level]
       [--fix-double-quotes] [--no-header] [infile [outfile]]

DESCRIPTION
       pod2docbook converts files from pod format (see perlpod) to DocBook 4.2
       SGML (see <http://www.docbook.org/>).  The program itself is merely a

       pod-to-SGML translation see Pod::DocBook.
