I've just sent to CPAN a new module, Pod::Escapes. It's for resolving E<...> sequences. It contains a data table of all named (e.g., eacute, amp, inf, pi, etc.), and a routine for resolving numeric or named E<...> sequences. I wrote this since there was no authoritative, complete, and modular routine for doing what needed doing in the various Pod processors' treatment of E<...> sequences. I think Pod::Text had a partial table of named entities, but it was, I recall, not part of the stable public interface.
I'd appreciate feedback if any of the Pod::* authors have trouble changing their modules to use Pod::Escapes to resolve E<...> sequences. -- Sean M. Burke [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.spinn.net/~sburke/
