Yup, that would work. I would tend to use M<>, but I don't really care. > "Still" makes me think this was argued at some point and you lost. Well, the problem is more that the author of Pod::Simple ran out of time to work on the package before putting out a release that added the required support that I need to release the next version of podlators, which is Pod::Simple-based and has been ready for nine months except that it still needs a patch that he said would be in the next release of Pod::Simple. And everything else is stalled on that, since Pod::Simple added the necessary infrastructure to add new inline sequences. Beyond that, I think it's just a simple matter of agreeing on what letter to use and then starting to implement it in the translators. Maybe I should just release the new version of podlators, including the required patch, and tell people to apply it to Pod::Simple before installing. :/ -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
