Pod::Text::Termcap(3) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Pod::Text::Termcap(3)NAMEPod::Text::Termcap - Convert POD data to ASCII text with format escapes
SYNOPSIS
use Pod::Text::Termcap;
my $parser = Pod::Text::Termcap->new (sentence => 0, width => 78);
# Read POD from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
$parser->parse_from_filehandle;
# Read POD from file.pod and write to file.txt.
$parser->parse_from_file ('file.pod', 'file.txt');
DESCRIPTIONPod::Text::Termcap is a simple subclass of Pod::Text that highlights
output text using the correct termcap escape sequences for the current
terminal. Apart from the format codes, it in all ways functions like
Pod::Text. See Pod::Text for details and available options.
NOTES
This module uses Term::Cap to retrieve the formatting escape sequences
for the current terminal, and falls back on the ECMA-48 (the same in
this regard as ANSI X3.64 and ISO 6429, the escape codes also used by
DEC VT100 terminals) if the bold, underline, and reset codes aren't set
in the termcap information.

part of the Perl core distribution as of 5.6.0.
