NAME
    Pod::Text::Color - Convert POD data to formatted color ASCII text

SYNOPSIS
        use Pod::Text::Color;
        my $parser = Pod::Text::Color->new (sentence => 0, width => 78);

        # Read POD from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
        $parser->parse_from_filehandle;

        # Read POD from file.pod and write to file.txt.
        $parser->parse_from_file ('file.pod', 'file.txt');

DESCRIPTION
    Pod::Text::Color is a simple subclass of Pod::Text that highlights output text using ANSI color
    escape sequences. Apart from the color, it in all ways functions like Pod::Text. See Pod::Text
    for details and available options.

    Term::ANSIColor is used to get colors and therefore must be installed to use this module.

COMPATIBILITY
    Pod::Text::Color 0.05 (based on Pod::Parser) was the first version of this module included with
    Perl, in Perl 5.6.0.

    The current API based on Pod::Simple was added in Pod::Text::Color 2.00. Pod::Text::Color 2.01
    was included in Perl 5.9.3, the first version of Perl to incorporate those changes.

    Several problems with wrapping and line length were fixed as recently as Pod::Text::Color 4.11,
    included in Perl 5.29.1.

    This module inherits its API and most behavior from Pod::Text, so the details in "COMPATIBILITY"
    in Pod::Text also apply. Pod::Text and Pod::Text::Color have had the same module version since
    4.00, included in Perl 5.23.7. (They unfortunately diverge in confusing ways prior to that.)
