Version 1.18 of PodParser is available for beta-testing
at the following URL:

  ftp://ftp.enteract.com/users/bradapp/src/libs/Perl5/PodParser-1.18.tar.gz

In addition to doing a normal "make test", if folks could
please run the "pod2usage" script with the "-man" option
and make sure it successfully executes "perldoc" I'd be much
obliged (particularly those of you who can test it on non-Unix
systems).

If I don't hear of any problems in the next few days, I'll upload
this to CPAN as the official 1.18 release of PodParser. It
fixes the following bugs/shortcomings:

 + Fixed error in failing recognize empty C<<  >> sequences
 + Modified pod2usage to use perldoc if ultra-verbose mode is set
   and input is a filename and output is STDOUT (so now it doesn't
   just print the manpage, it pretty prints it and paginates it)
 + Allowed -exitval => NOEXIT to be given to pod2usage to instruct
   it NOT to exit the running script.
 + Applied patch from Tim Jennes to t/pod/find.t

Thanks! As always, any tuits that folks can spare to look at
performance issues in Pod::Parser will be greatly appreciated
by pod-users everywhere :-)
