POD2SDF(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation POD2SDF(1p)NAME
pod2sdf - converts POD to SDF markup
SYNOPSIS
pod2sdf [-m] infile > outfile
DESCRIPTION
pod2sdf should be used when one wants to use SDF instead of POD as the base documentation format. sdf does this convertion on the fly for
"*.pod, *.pl, *.pm" files for you. So pod2sdf is only needed when one wants to make extensive use of the powerful features of SDF and
marking them with "=begin sdf" and "=end sdf" gets inconvenient.

sdfcli - Command Line Interface Utility
PURPOSE
sdfcli extracts command line interface (CLI) information from applications and formats it into SDF.
USAGE
usage : sdfcli [-h[help]] [-o[out_ext]]
[-l[log_ext]] [-O[out_dir]] [-w wrap]
utility ...
purpose: format a utility's command line interface into SDF
version: 2.000 (SDF 2.001)
The options are:
Option Description
-h display help on options
-o output file extension
-l log file extension
-O output to input file's (or explicit) directory
-w column at which to wrap option specifications
DESCRIPTION
The -h option provides help. If it is specified without a parameter, a brief description of each option is displayed. To display the
attributes for an option, specify the option letter as a parameter.
By default, generated output goes to standard output. To direct output to a file per input file, use the -o option to specify an extension
for output files. If the -o option is specified without a parameter, an extension of out is assumed.
Likewise, error messages go to standard error by default. Use the -l option to create a log file per input file. If the -l option is
specified without a parameter, an extension of log is assumed.
By default, generated output and log files are created in the current directory. Use the -O option to specify an explicit output directory.
If the -O option is specified without a parameter, the input file's directory is used.
sdfcli executes each argument with a -h flag and converts the resultant output to nicely formatted SDF. An argument of "-" specifies that
the help should be read from standard input.
Formatting is done as follows:
1. lines are tagged as Example paragraphs, with the first line formatted to wrap option usage specifications nicely
2. if a line is found that starts with 'options:', it is replaced with a Body paragraph saying "The options are:", and the following lines
are formatted as a table of codes and descriptions
3. if a line is found that starts with 'aliases:', it is replaced with a Body paragraph saying "The aliases are:", and the following lines
are formatted as a table of names and descriptions
4. each option code in the table is formatted as a hypertext jump to a tag called cmd_opt where:
o cmd is the command name
o opt is the option code
The -w option specifies at what column to wrap option specifications. The default is 50 - this is the best for output imported into the
Mincom templates.
LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
The table formats used are hard coded.
