Basic perl modules for handling Plain Old Documentation (POD)
This software distribution contains the packages for using Perl5 POD (Plain Old Documentation). See the "perlpod" and "perlsyn" manual pages from your Perl5 distribution for more information about POD.

The Carp routines are useful in your own modules because they act like die() or warn(), but with a message which is more likely to be useful to a user of your module. In the case of cluck, confess, and longmess that context is a summary of every call in the call-stack. For a shorter message you can use carp or croak which report the error as being from where your module was called. There is no guarantee that that is where the error was, but it is a good educated guess.
A highly capable, feature-rich programming language

Print a usage message from embedded pod documentation
Pod2usage will print a usage message for the invoking script (using its embedded pod documentation) and then exit the script with the desired exit status. The usage message printed may have any one of three levels of "verboseness": If the verbose level is 0, then only a synopsis is printed. If the verbose level is 1, then the synopsis is printed along with a description (if present) of the command line options and arguments. If the verbose level is 2, then the entire manual page is printed.
This package is the shared library for perl.
A module to convert documentation in the POD format into Latex
Pod::LaTeX is a module to convert documentation in the POD format into LaTeX.The pod2latex command uses this module for translation. 'Pod::LaTeX' is a derived class from Pod::Select.
Extended processing of command line options
Module Getopt::Long implements an extended getopt function called GetOptions(). This function implements the POSIX standard for command line options, with GNU extensions, while still capable of handling the traditional one-letter options.
