DESCRIPTION

       Converts files from pod format (see perlpod) to HTML format.


ARGUMENTS

       pod2html takes the following arguments:

       backlink
             --backlink
             --nobacklink

           Turn =head1 directives into links pointing to the top of the HTML
           file.  --nobacklink (which is the default behavior) does not create
           these backlinks.

       cachedir
             --cachedir=name

           Specify which directory is used for storing cache. Default
           directory is the current working directory.

       css
             --css=URL

           Specify the URL of cascading style sheet to link from resulting
           HTML file.  Default is none style sheet.

       flush
             --flush

           Flush the cache.

       header
             --header
             --noheader

           Create header and footer blocks containing the text of the "NAME"
           section.  --noheader -- which is the default behavior -- does not
           create header or footer blocks.

       help
             --help

           Displays the usage message.

       htmldir
             --htmldir=name

           Sets the directory to which all cross references in the resulting
           HTML file will be relative. Not passing this causes all links to be
           absolute since this is the value that tells Pod::Html the root of
           the documentation tree.

           Do not use this and --htmlroot in the same call to pod2html; they
           are mutually exclusive.

       htmlroot
             --htmlroot=URL

           Sets the base URL for the HTML files.  When cross-references are
           made, the HTML root is prepended to the URL.

           Do not use this if relative links are desired: use --htmldir
           instead.

           Do not pass both this and --htmldir to pod2html; they are mutually
           exclusive.

       index
             --index

           Generate an index at the top of the HTML file (default behaviour).

           noindex
                 --noindex

               Do not generate an index at the top of the HTML file.

       infile
             --infile=name

           Specify the pod file to convert.  Input is taken from STDIN if no
           infile is specified.

       outfile
             --outfile=name

           Specify the HTML file to create.  Output goes to STDOUT if no
           outfile is specified.

       poderrors
             --poderrors
             --nopoderrors

           Include a "POD ERRORS" section in the outfile if there were any POD
           errors in the infile (default behaviour).  --nopoderrors does not
           create this "POD ERRORS" section.

       podpath
             --podpath=name:...:name

           Specify which subdirectories of the podroot contain pod files whose
           HTML converted forms can be linked-to in cross-references.

       podroot
             --podroot=name

           Specify the base directory for finding library pods.

       quiet
             --quiet
             --noquiet

           Don't display mostly harmless warning messages.  --noquiet -- which
           is the default behavior -- does display these mostly harmless
           warning messages (but this is not the same as "verbose" mode).

       recurse
             --recurse
             --norecurse

           Recurse into subdirectories specified in podpath (default
           behaviour).  --norecurse does not recurse into these
           subdirectories.

       title
             --title=title

           Specify the title of the resulting HTML file.

       verbose
             --verbose
             --noverbose

           Display progress messages. --noverbose -- which is the default
           behavior -- does not display these progress messages.
