Subject: pod2man doesn't support E<copy>
During 'make', pod2man complains: --cut-- Manifying blib/man3/WWW::Shorten.3 lib/WWW/Shorten.pm:194: Unknown escape E<copy> lib/WWW/Shorten.pm:196: Unknown escape E<copy> lib/WWW/Shorten.pm:198: Unknown escape E<copy> --cut-- This is due to pod2man not supporting the E<copy> escape. You might want to make format-specific sections in the text to work around this. /Lars

Sidenote: search.cpan.org uses a decent POD parser. See what it does: http://search.cpan.org/author/SPOON/WWW-Shorten/lib/WWW/Shorten.pm#LICENCE_AND_COPYRIGHT http://xrl.us/sje (shortened version of the above url) cheers, -- Iain.
