NAME

Gtk2::PodViewer::Parser - a custom POD Parser for Gtk2::PodViewer.

SYNOPSIS

my $parser = Gtk2::PodViewer::Parser->new(
	buffer	=> $Gtk2TextView->get_buffer,
);

$parser->parse_from_file($file);

DESCRIPTION

Gtk2::PodViewer::Parser is a custom Pod parser for the Gtk2::PodViewer widget. You should never need to use it directly.

It is based on Pod::Parser.

METHODS

One neat method not implemented by Pod::Parser is

$parser->parse_from_string($string);

This parses a scalar containing POD data, using IO::Scalar to create a tied filehandle.

IMPORTABLE FUNCTIONS

use Gtk2::PodViewer::Parser qw(decode_entities);
my $text = decode_entities($pod);

This function takes a string of POD, and returns it with all the POD entities (eg E<gt> => ">") decoded into readable characters.
