DESCRIPTION

Pod::MultiLang is a pod extesion. This module implements J<> interior sequence for write multi langages in sigle pod. One languages enclosed by J interior sequence in each paragraph. Some heading words are translated automatically. Note that J<> is not official interior sequence, this is custom one.
