NAME

App::sdview - a terminal document viewer for POD and other syntaxes

SYNOPSIS

   use App::sdview;

   exit App::sdview->new->run( "some-file.pod" );

DESCRIPTION

This module implements a terminal-based program for viewing structured documents. It currently understands POD and some simple Markdown formatting, though future versions are expected to handle nroff (for manpages) and other styles.

To actually use it, you likely wanted wanted to see the bin/sdview script.

TODO

  • Add more formats. nroff and ReST at least. Perhaps others.

  • Improved Markdown parser. Currently the parser is very simple.

  • Other outputs. Consider a Tickit-based frontend. Also some structured file writers - allowing cross-conversion between POD, Markdown, ReST, nroff and maybe also HTML output.
