This release adds support for anchor text for URLs, fixes some formatting
issues with Pod::Text subclasses, suppresses formatting in the NAME
section of man pages, and fixes a few other bugs. Note that Pod::Simple
3.06 or later is now required.
Changes since previous release:
2009-12-28 Russ Allbery <[email protected]>
* VERSION: podlators 2.3.0 released.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (_handle_element_start): Do not turn off IN_NAME
for any formatting code.
(cmd_b): Suppress formatting if in the NAME section to not confuse
lexgrog.
(cmd_i): Likewise.
(cmd_f): Likewise.
* t/man.t: Test formatting codes in the NAME section.
* lib/Pod/ParseLink.pm (parselink): Allow anchor text for URLs as
well. Fix the check of the anchor text to not think no text was
provided when the text was "0".
* t/parselink.t: Test anchor text of "0" and anchor text with
URLs.
* Makefile.PL: Require Pod::Simple 3.06 or later for proper
handling of L<> tags with anchor text.
* t/text.t: Remove logic to skip an S<> test for Pod::Simple
versions earlier than 3.06.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (cmd_l): Support anchor text for L<> links of
type URL by rendering the anchor text and then the URL in angle
brackets.
* lib/Pod/Text.pm (cmd_l): Likewise.
* t/man.t: Test rendering of L<> URL links with anchor text.
* t/text.t: Likewise.
* lib/Pod/Text.pm (strip_format): New function.
(item): When formatting item tags, use the width of the tag
without formatting codes. This does not change the output of
Pod::Text but provides a hook for correct formatting in
subclasses.
* lib/Pod/Text/Color.pm (strip_format): New function.
* lib/Pod/Text/Termcap.pm (strip_format): New function.
* t/color.t: Test proper formatting of item tags which have
formatting codes applied.
* t/termcap.t: Likewise.
* t/overstrike.t: New test of Pod::Text::Overstrike.
* t/basic.t: Use Test::More for testing. Remove duplicate
addition of ../blib/lib to the library search path.
* t/color.t: Likewise.
* t/filehandle.t: Likewise.
* t/man-heading.t: Likewise.
* t/man-options.t: Likewise.
* t/man-utf8.t: Likewise.
* t/man.t: Likewise.
* t/parselink.t: Likewise.
* t/pod-parser.t: Likewise.
* t/termcap.t: Likewise.
* t/text-encoding.t: Likewise.
* t/text-options.t: Likewise.
* t/text-utf8.t: Likewise.
* t/text.t: Likewise.
* t/pod-spelling.t: Update to the current version of this test
from C TAP Harness 1.1, converting it to use Test::More.
* t/pod.t: Likewise.

* t/basic.t: Unlink temporary files in a loop to be sure that all
versions are deleted on VMS. Thanks, John E. Malmberg.
* t/color.t: Likewise.
* t/filehandle.t: Likewise.
* t/man-options.t: Likewise.
* t/man-utf8.t: Likewise.
* t/man.t: Likewise.
* t/pod-parser.t: Likewise.
* t/termcap.t: Likewise.
* t/text-encoding.t: Likewise.
* t/text-options.t: Likewise.
* t/text-utf8.t: Likewise.
* t/text.t: Likewise
2009-03-29 Russ Allbery <[email protected]>
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (outindex): Escape backslashes in the quoted text
of .IX macros generated from X<> formatting code.
* t/man.t: Add test case for X<\n>.
2009-03-05 Russ Allbery <[email protected]>
* scripts/pod2man.PL: Clarify that no markup should be used in the
NAME section of a manual page.
2009-02-28 Russ Allbery <[email protected]>
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (devise_date): Avoid POSIX::strftime because
POSIX requires Fcntl, which is an XS module, and hence can't build
in miniperl. This allows ExtUtils::MakeMaker to build as a normal
module in Perl core. Thanks, Michael G Schwern.
* t/devise-date.t: Test that Pod::Man's devise_date method matches
the output of strftime.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (_handle_element_start): Don't exit IN_NAME mode
because of a C<> block. Thanks, Niko Tyni.
(quote_literal): Return an ASCII quoted string if in the NAME
section to avoid confusing lexgrog. Thanks, Niko Tyni.
* t/man.t: Test C<> in the NAME section.
