pod2html in perl-5.15.9 uses Pod::Simple::XHTML to do its work; and Pod::Simple::XHTML is different than other POD formatters in that it enables 'codes_in_verbatim' feature of Pod::Simple. This makes POD like this:
> =head1 TEXT > > $a++ B<if> $a < 10; > > more text here. turn into (you get a bolded if-keyword): > <h1 id="TEXT">TEXT</h1> > > <pre><code> $a++ <b>if</b> $a < 10;</code></pre> > > <p>more text here.</p> while pod2text just outputs: > TEXT > $a++ B<if> $a < 10; > > more text here. I don't like this inconsistency. I believe this "feature" should simply be turned off. This is a patch to do that: https://github.com/gisle/pod-simple/commit/846241382485e039ad3802af81c8c1e87afe1ac9 Any objections? --Gisle
