NAME

     Pod::Text::Color - Convert POD data to formatted color ASCII
     text

SYNOPSIS

         use Pod::Text::Color;
         my $parser = Pod::Text::Color->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');

DESCRIPTION

     Pod::Text::Color is a simple subclass of Pod::Text that
     highlights output text using ANSI color escape sequences.
     Apart from the color, it in all ways functions like
     Pod::Text.  See Pod::Text for details and available options.

     Term::ANSIColor is used to get colors and therefore must be
     installed to use this module.

BUGS

     This is just a basic proof of concept.  It should be seri-
     ously expanded to support configurable coloration via
     options passed to the constructor, and pod2text should be
     taught about those.

     also part of the Perl core distribution as of 5.6.0.
