-pathlist dirlist
Specifies one or more directories to search for
the input file if it was not supplied with an
absolute path. Each directory path in the given
list should be separated by a ':' on Unix (';' on
MSWin32 and DOS).
file The pathname of a file containing pod documentation
to be output in usage mesage format (defaults
to standard input).
pod2usage will read the given input file looking for pod
documentation and will print the corresponding usage message.
If no input file is specified then standard input
is read.
pod2usage invokes the pod2usage() function in the
Pod::Usage module. Please see "pod2usage()" in Pod::Usage.
