## This is a sample

> First a quote section.

> Second verse.

See the `sample.pod` file that this HTML was generated from.

Then an `Example Link` for a `Pod::Simple` module. See also `Pod::Simple::Subclassing`. Now we mention `Pod::Simple` again. Now we talk about a `data.txt` file. And our copy of `data.txt`. And a plain `http://www.example.com` a/href.

And some foot-noted text.1

# BIG Header (1)

## normal header (2)

### little header (3)

#### littlest header (4)

## Other tags

Regular bold and italics work too.

And inline code such as this `my $foo=Bar- > new()` snippet.

And regular pod Verbatim is treated as code:

      my $x = $y;
      $x += 3;

## More code examples

Just a code snippet:

    foreach my $foo ( @bar ){
      print $foo;
    }

    my $x;

A code snippet w/line numbers:

       1 foreach my $foo ( @bar ){
       2   print $foo;
       3 }
       4
       5 my $bar;

And code sourced from the `sample.pl` file:

## sample.pl

       1 use Example::Module;
       2 my $obj = Example::Module->new();
       3 foreach my $x ( $obj->get_list ){
       4   printf "Foo == %s ==\n", $x;
       5 }

And just <pre> tag stuff, e.g. for output or data.

    This is just preformatted
           t
             e
               x
                 t.
    Which is good for output examples.

    and more output
