I disagree.
Pod::Html is not on CPAN, it's a part of CORE.
Pod::Html has been like this for a long time (very long time).

You're not the first to complain, but most others interested in converting pod to html found other means:

  • Pod::POM -- very nice, just a few bugs here and there {I think I fixed the big ones}
  • Pod::Simple -- needs more pod ;P (it's a beta release)
  • Marek::Pod::HTML -- aims to replace Pod::Html (works rather well, try this one -- i'm thinking of making Pod::Master work more with it).

Extending Pod::Html would require a rewrite of Pod::Html.

it required the installation of 4 additional modules
And here I thought you were grown up ;)
and if it doesn't want to do it, let's kick it out from CPAN! ;-)
No. (it? Pod::Html is a module). You're very much welcomed and encouraged to improve it and submit a patch along with tests to the perl 5 porters.


MJD says you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!
I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6x+5.8x. I take requests.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
