Subject: bad POD in Text::Autoformat
The =begin / =cut block used in Autoformat.pm breaks the POD formatting of all recent formatters (pod2man, perldoc, tkpod). It should be removed completely (e.g. using comments) or rephrased like this: =begin other print STDERR "[", join("|", $para->{raw} =~ / \A(\s*) # $1 - leading whitespace (quotation) (["']|``) # $2 - opening quotemark (.*) # $3 - quotation (''|\2) # $4 closing quotemark \s*?\n # trailing whitespace (\1[ ]+) # $5 - leading whitespace (attribution) (--|-) # $6 - attribution introducer ([^\n]*?$) # $7 - attribution line 1 ((\5[^\n]*?$)*) # $8 - attributions lines 2-N \s*\Z /xsm ), "]\n"; =end other =cut Then perldoc and tkpod will show the correct POD. Thanks a lot and all the best, Marek
This seems to have been removed in some previous release, so I'm marking it as closed.
