Hi,

For experimenters willing to play with buggy software (including possible
problems with Test::Harness and MM_VMS.pm on VMS) there is a new edition
of the Pod2VMSHlp distribution that is not yet ready for CPAN.
It sports a -w and -Mstrict clean implementation of Pod::Hlp for
converting pod docs to VMS .HLP format, and thanks to Russ Allbery's
Pod::Parser there a semi optional Pod::DSR.pm module and pod2rno driver
script for turning .pod into .rno input for RUNOFF.

I already know of plenty of problems (there is lingering *roff in the
Pod::DSR module for example), but I thought now might be a good time to
solicit input concerning at least the DSR output of Pod::DSR and pod2rno.  
So tinkerers are invited to look at:

  http://www.best.com/~pvhp/vms/Pod2VMSHlp-1.02a.tar.gz

for a preliminary version of what will eventually be
Pod2VMSHlp-1.02.tar.gz on CPAN.  Thanks for your feedback.

Peter Prymmer
