<p>The <code>pod2texi</code> program translates Perl pod documentation file(s)
to Texinfo.  There are two basic modes of operation: generating a
standalone manual from each input pod, or (if <code>--base-level=1</code> or
higher is given) generating Texinfo subfiles suitable for use
with <code>@include</code>.
</p>
<p>Although ordinarily this documentation in the Texinfo manual would be
the best place to look, in this case we have documented all the
options and examples in the <code>pod2texi</code> program itself, since it
may be useful outside of the rest of Texinfo.  Thus, please see the
output of <code>pod2texi --help</code>, the version on the web at
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/pod2texi.html">http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/pod2texi.html</a>, etc.
</p>
<p>For an example of using <code>pod2texi</code> to make Texinfo out of the
Perl documentation itself, see
<a href="http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/trunk/contrib/perldoc-all/?root=texinfo"><samp>contrib/perldoc-all</samp></a> in the Texinfo source distribution (the
output is available at <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/perl/manual">http://www.gnu.org/software/perl/manual</a>).
