       pod2markdown - Convert POD text to Markdown

VERSION
       version 3.002

SYNOPSIS
           # parse STDIN, print to STDOUT
           $ pod2markdown < POD_File > Markdown_File

           # parse file, print to STDOUT

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:

       o   input pod file (defaults to "STDIN")

       o   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".

SEE ALSO
       This program is strongly based on "pod2mdwn" from
       Module::Build::IkiWiki.
