NAME
       Pod::Plainer - Perl extension for converting Pod to old style Pod.

SYNOPSIS
	 use Pod::Plainer;

	 my $parser = Pod::Plainer -> new ();
	 $parser -> parse_from_filehandle(\*STDIN);

DESCRIPTION
       Pod::Plainer uses Pod::Parser which takes Pod with the (new) ’C<< ..
       >>’ constructs and returns the old(er) style with just ’C<>’; ’<’ and
       ’>’ are replaced by ’E<lt>’ and ’E<gt>’.

       This can be used to pre-process Pod before using tools which do not
       recognise the new style Pods.

       EXPORT

       None by default.
