NAME
       Pod::Text::Color - Convert POD data to formatted color
       ASCII text

SYNOPSIS
           use Pod::Text::Color;
           my $parser = Pod::Text::Color->new (sentence => 0, width => 78);

           # Read POD from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
           $parser->parse_from_filehandle;

           # Read POD from file.pod and write to file.txt.
           $parser->parse_from_file ('file.pod', 'file.txt');


DESCRIPTION
       Pod::Text::Color is a simple subclass of Pod::Text that
       highlights output text using ANSI color escape sequences.
       Apart from the color, it in all ways functions like
       Pod::Text.  See the Pod::Text manpage for details and
       available options.

       Term::ANSIColor is used to get colors and therefore must
       be installed to use this module.

BUGS
       This is just a basic proof of concept.  It should be seri-
       ously expanded to support configurable coloration via
       options passed to the constructor, and pod2text should be
       taught about those.
