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.
