Which perl version is supposed to allow =encoding as a POD directive? Please see "perlpod" and "perlpodspec" manual pages. -Marek On Mo. 12. Nov. 2007, 11:42:54, ELLIOTJS wrote: Show quoted text

The perlpodspec page lists the =encoding directive right after the =for directive: http://perldoc.perl.org/perlpodspec.html.

It looks like perl 5.8.0 does not have it, but 5.8.1 does.

Subject: [rt.cpan.org #30672] Pod::Checker 1.43 does not recognize the =encoding directive.
Date: Sat, 24 Nov 2007 01:11:30 -0200
To: bug-Pod-Parser [...] rt.cpan.org
From: "Adriano Ferreira" <a.r.ferreira [...] gmail.com>
At Nov 15, 2007, Pod::Checker was patched at bleadperl with Change 32330 by Steve Peters (http://groups.google.com/group/perl.perl5.porters/msg/4ed9e346e1a3e2a2) (http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse?patch=32330). It was a very minimal change, only enough to make podchecker to accept POD documents with the =encoding directive. (Note. This was released with Perl 5.10.0-RC1, now in CPAN.) The attached patch brings Steve's patch plus a dumb test. Cheers, Adriano Ferreira
