BTW, pod2html looks like it will already do this, but I can't figure out how to make it:
1. create a single xhtml file for each pod 2. give each file a specific name
Yeah, I can't do this pod by pod, but I'm lazy.
I'm still not understanding what the problem is. Why can't you build the docs pod-by-pod? Allow me to offer another suggestion that might be the middle of the road your looking for. A single command line solution based on pod2html.
Assume you start in your module build directory and that you want to build your html docs from perl file in the "lib" subdirectory and put html output in a subdirectory called "ht"
find lib -type f -name '*.(pm|pl)' -exec pod2html --htmldir=ht --infile={} --outfile=ht/{}.html\;
Of course, if your using a makefile maybe you want to do some variation of this that only build pods for specific parts that you might be building separately. And of course you can have a separate install step that copies the contents of the "ht" subdirectory to someplace you want to install them.
