Overview

PseudoPod is an extended set of Pod tags used for book manuscripts. Standard Pod doesn't have all the markup options you need to mark up files for publishing production. PseudoPod adds a few extra tags for footnotes, tables, sidebars, etc.

This class adds parsing support for the PseudoPod tags. It also overrides Pod::Simple's "_handle_element_start", "_handle_text", and "_handle_element_end" methods so that parser events are turned into method calls.

In general, you'll only want to use this module as the base class for a PseudoPod formatter/processor.
