Not as such.For example, if I put C< *junk* data = $b + $c > in my pod would I be able to tell pod converters to ignore the "*junk*"?
Or if I put in C< +MYFLAG+ = $b + $c > could I tell pod to replace "+MYFLAG+" with "data" or <what>?
No.
I'm curious, what sort of things are you trying to do? I might be able to suggest a better way to do what you want.
