The pod-format is the shortcut of (Perl Online Documentation). That means
that these file could be easily adopted and used for Perl-scripts as
online-documentation. There are several tools to convert POD-format to
other
formats, see pod2html, pod2man, pod2latex, pod2text, and pod2usage.
For further details see the 'man perlpod'.
And, of course, the pod-format is a quite easy to understand plain-text
format. So you could simply read the pod-files directly with your
favourite
pager or editor.

Ciao, Georg

Thanks, Georg. But there's another problem, the OS I am currently using is Microsoft Windows, not a POSIX. So besides 'man perlpod', is there any other way to get this infomation?
