use Pod::MultiLang::Html;

DESCRIPTION

Pod::MultiLang is a pod extension. This module implements J<> interior sequence for write multi languages in single pod. One languages enclosed by J interior sequence in each paragraph. Some heading words are translated automatically. Note that J<> is not official interior sequence, this is custom one.

New format for L<|/> interior sequence is:

J<<< ja;
L<< text | page /"heading J<ja; japanese heading >" >>
>>>

At section part, English heading is still required. Because in many hypertext formats, link identifier is restricted into ASCII.

Verbatim paragraphs will be joined with one blank line.
