37: The <span class="nm">pod2mdoc</span> utility is a converter from <a

1.6 ! schwarze 39: href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=mdoc&sec=7">mdoc</a>.
1.1 kristaps 40: It's meant to operate like <a class="nm" href="http://perldoc.perl.org/pod2man.html">pod2man</a>; however, it
41: doesn't require a <a href="http://www.perl.org/">Perl</a> installation: <span class="nm">pod2mdoc</span> is a
42: standalone <a rel="license"
43: href="https://www.isc.org/downloads/software-support-policy/isc-license/">ISC</a>-licensed ISO C utility
44: and should compile on any modern UNIX system.

50: By way of being a presentational language, POD is not well-represented

1.3 kristaps 52: Semantic content must be inferred and may be wrong.
