Generate perl documentation in html

Usage

perl2html [-- [no] toc] [--hr level] [--bgcolor #rrggbb] [--text #rrggbb] [--v verbosity] PerlDir HTMLDir

Overview

perl2html translates Perl documentation to HTML. PerlDir is the root of the Perl source tree. The HTML pages are organized into a directory tree rooted at HTMLDir. A top-level index is written to HTMLDir"/index.html"

In addition to the Perl sources, perl2html searches @INC for module PODs, and $ENV{PATH} for program PODS.

All the HTML pages are created world-readable.

Perldir and HTMLDir must be absolute path names.
