Subject: Link to "Pod-Simple" doesn't work
The link here doesn't work: Show quoted text

It should be "Pod::Simple". You can confirm at the following web pages: https://metacpan.org/pod/Pod::Find http://search.cpan.org/~marekr/Pod-Parser-1.63/lib/Pod/Find.pm
Pod::Simple alone would not do the job, you actually need the whole distro, that's why it says Pod-Simple. And it is text, not a link. -Marek

It's a link: B<NOTE: This module is considered legacy; modern Perl releases (5.18 and higher) are going to remove Pod-Parser from core and use L<Pod-Simple> for all things POD.> https://metacpan.org/source/MAREKR/Pod-Parser-1.63/lib/Pod/Find.pm#L49 Seems like you could have checked that for yourself in less time than you spent telling me it wasn't a link.

Did I do you any harm? Any particular reason why you are harassing me this way? IMHO, that's not exactly an encouraging way of communication. Yes, I will fix this, no doubt, in all places; what confused me is that the quote you inserted in the text here did not show the L<...>. -Marek
