DESCRIPTION

CWpod2latex is a program to convert POD format documentation (perlpod) into latex. It can process multiple input documents at a time and either generate a latex file per input document or a single combined output file.

OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS

This section describes the supported command line options. Minimum matching is supported.

-out
Name of the output file to be used. If there are multiple input pods it is assumed that the intention is to write all translated output into a single file. CW.tex is appended if not present. If the argument is not supplied, a single document will be created for each input file.
-full
Creates a complete CWlatex file that can be processed immediately (unless CW=for/=begin directives are used that rely on extra packages). Table of contents and index generation commands are included in the wrapper CWlatex code.
-sections
Specify pod sections to include (or remove if negated) in the translation. See SECTION SPECIFICATIONS in Pod::Select for the format to use for section-spec. This option may be given multiple times on the command line.This is identical to the similar option in the CWpodselect() command.
-modify
This option causes the output CWlatex to be slightly modified from the input pod such that when a CW=head1 NAME is encountered a section is created containing the actual pod name (rather than NAME) and all subsequent CW=head1 directives are treated as subsections. This has the advantage that the description of a module will be in its own section which is helpful for including module descriptions in documentation. Also forces CWlatex label and index entries to be prefixed by the name of the module.
-h1level
Specifies the CWlatex section that is equivalent to a CWH1 pod directive. This is an integer between 0 and 5 with 0 equivalent to a CWlatex chapter, 1 equivalent to a CWlatex section etc. The default is 1 (CWH1 equivalent to a latex section).
-help
Print a brief help message and exit.
-man
Print the manual page and exit.
-verbose
Print information messages as each document is processed.
-preamble
A user-supplied preamble for the LaTeX code. Multiple values are supported and appended in order separated by \n. See -prefile for reading the preamble from a file.
-postamble
A user supplied postamble for the LaTeX code. Multiple values are supported and appended in order separated by \n. See -postfile for reading the postamble from a file.
-prefile
A user-supplied preamble for the LaTeX code to be read from the named file. Multiple values are supported and appended in order. See -preamble.
-postfile
A user-supplied postamble for the LaTeX code to be read from the named file. Multiple values are supported and appended in order. See -postamble.

BUGS

Known bugs are:

•
Cross references between documents are not resolved when multiple pod documents are converted into a single output CWlatex file.
•
Functions and variables are not automatically recognized and they will therefore not be marked up in any special way unless instructed by an explicit pod command.
