NAME
       pom2 - convert POD to Text, HTML, etc., with Pod::POM

SYNOPSIS
           pom2 text MyFile.pm > MyFile.txt
           pom2 html MyFile.pm > MyFile.html
           pom2 pod  MyFile.pm > Myfile.pod

           pom2 format [options] MyFile.pm > Myfile.xyz

DESCRIPTION
       This script uses "Pod::POM" to convert a Pod document into text, HTML,
       back into Pod (e.g. to normalise a document to fix any markup errors),
       or any other format for which you have a view module.

       If the viewer is not one of the viewers bundled with "Pod::POM", the
       script searches for an installed "Pod::POM::View" module that matches
       the specified format.  For example if you have
       "Pod::POM::View::DocBook" installed then you could say:

           pod2 docbook MyFile.pm > MyFile.xml

       If any options other than "--help" are specified then they are passed
       to the constructor method of the view class.  For example:

           pod2 docbook --root=chapter --titlecasing MyFile.pm > MyFile.xml

       would convert the Pod document to a DocBook chapter document with the
       titlecasing option enabled.  Note that any string prefixed by ""--"" is
       taken as a valid option and passed to the constructor; if no value is
       specified then a value of 1 is passed in.
