I don't know if you folks caught the Pod::Tests announcement
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg00236.html

but if you'll look at the guts you'll notice it doesn't use
Pod::Parser (despite a mistaken dependency inthe Makefile.)  Instead,
I had to write my own simple parser.  Why?  Because I gave up on
figuring out Pod::Parser.

Pod::Parser is very complete and very useful, but its massive, has a
bewildering array of methods and options and lacks useful examples.
The docs are also rather out of date (see next message).  Code I
looked at which uses it (Pod::Man, Pod::Text, etc...) is equally
confusing.  I invested no small amount of time trying to figure out
how it works.

Unless I'm missing something, we sorely need a simple Pod parser.  I
don't see anything obvious in CPAN, but I might just be missing it.
Unless anyone already knows of one, I'm going to go ahead with
Pod::Parser::Simple.
