Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf(3) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf(3) NAME Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf - let Perldoc render Pod as RTF SYNOPSIS perldoc -o rtf Some::Modulename DESCRIPTION This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use Pod::Simple::RTF as a formatter class. This is actually a Pod::Simple::RTF subclass, and inherits all its options. You have to have Pod::Simple::RTF installed (from the Pod::Simple dist), or this module won't work. If Perldoc is running under MSWin and uses this class as a formatter, the output will be opened with write.exe or whatever program is speci- fied in(1,8) the environment variable "RTFREADER". For example, to specify that RTF files should be opened the same as they are when you double- click them, you would do "set(7,n,1 builtins) RTFREADER=start.exe" in(1,8) your autoexec.bat. Handy tip: put "set(7,n,1 builtins) PERLDOC=-ortf" in(1,8) your autoexec.bat and that will set(7,n,1 builtins) this class as the default formatter to run when you do "perldoc whatever".
