83
84=item B<-exit> I<exitval>
85
86The exit status value to return.
87
88=item B<-output> I<outfile>
89
90The output file to print to. If the special names "-" or ">&1" or ">&STDOUT"
91are used then standard output is used. If ">&2" or ">&STDERR" is used then
92standard error is used.
93
94=item B<-verbose> I<level>
95
96The desired level of verbosity to use:
97
98 1 : print SYNOPSIS only
99 2 : print SYNOPSIS sections and any OPTIONS/ARGUMENTS sections
100 3 : print the entire manpage (similar to running pod2text)
101
102=item B<-pathlist> I<dirlist>
103
104Specifies one or more directories to search for the input file if it
105was not supplied with an absolute path. Each directory path in the given
106list should be separated by a ':' on Unix (';' on MSWin32 and DOS).
107
108=item I<file>
109
110The pathname of a file containing pod documentation to be output in
111usage mesage format (defaults to standard input).
112

114
115=head1 DESCRIPTION
116
117B<pod2usage> will read the given input file looking for pod
118documentation and will print the corresponding usage message.
119If no input file is specifed than standard input is read.
120
121B<pod2usage> invokes the B<pod2usage()> function in the B<Pod::Usage>
122module. Please see L<Pod::Usage/pod2usage()>.
