DESCRIPTION

       This program uses Pod::Markdown to convert POD into Markdown sources.

       UTF-8 is the default output encoding if no encoding options are specified (see "OPTIONS").

       It accepts two optional arguments:

       •   input pod file (defaults to "STDIN")

       •   output markdown file (defaults to "STDOUT")

OPTIONS

       --html-encode-chars
           A list of characters to encode as HTML entities.  Pass a regexp character class, or 1
           to mean control chars, high-bit chars, and "<&>"'".

           See "html_encode_chars" in Pod::Markdown for more information.

       --match-encoding (-m)
           Use the same "=encoding" as the input pod for the output file.

       --output-encoding (-e)
           Specify the encoding for the output file.

       --utf8 (-u)
           Alias for "-e UTF-8".

SEE ALSO

       This program is strongly based on "pod2mdwn" from Module::Build::IkiWiki.
