--recurse resolves pod links so when you're converting one --infile into one --outfile, pod2html will use the directories from --recurse to resolve links found in --infile, otherwise it won't create html links, so if you're reading the file in a browser, there is nothing to click since normally pod2html, if its called at all, its during make phase of module installation, to generate static html files but if you're running a laptop and you have multiple versions of perl, this quickly eats your disk space , and scanning entire @INC every time you upgrade module starts slowing down module installs , so you quickly learn to disable html generation and manpage generation and switch to something like plackup -l localhost:80 -e require(Pod::POM::Web::PSGI) It has been years since I've relied on static pod..html files Actually I'm mostly relying on metacpan these days for answering question around here See also pod2html/Pod::Html/Pod::Find, podtree2html/pods2html/perl2html, pod2cpanhtml
