## 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.
