Doug Barton 2fadfa2cfb For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

This is a specialized POD viewer to extract embedded tests and code
examples from POD. It doesn't do much more than that. pod2test does the
useful work.
After creating a Pod::Tests object, you parse the POD by calling one of
the available parsing methods documented below. You can call parse as many
times as you'd like, all examples and tests found will stack up inside the
object.
Once extracted, the tests can be built into stand-alone testing code using
the build_tests() and build_examples() methods. However, it is recommended
that you first look at the pod2test program before embarking on this.
