2    basic.pod - Test of various basic POD features in translators.
3
4HEADINGS
5    Try a few different levels of headings, with embedded formatting codes
6    and other interesting bits.
7
8This "is" a "level 1" heading
9  ``Level'' "2 *heading*
10   Level 3 heading *with "weird stuff "" (double quote)"*
11   Level "4 "heading"
12    Now try again with intermixed text.
13
14This "is" a "level 1" heading
15    Text.
16
17  ``Level'' 2 *heading*
18    Text.
19
20   Level 3 heading *with "weird stuff"*
21    Text.
22
23   Level "4 "heading"
24    Text.
25
26LINKS
27    These are all taken from the Pod::Parser tests.
28
29    Try out *LOTS* of different ways of specifying references:
30
31    Reference the "section" in manpage
32
33    Reference the "section" in manpage
34
35    Reference the "section" in manpage
36
37    Reference the "section" in manpage
38
39    Reference the "manpage/section"
40
41    Reference the "section" in "manpage"
42
43    Reference the "section" in manpage
44
45    Reference the "section" in manpage
46
47    Reference the "section" in manpage
48
49    Now try it using the new "|" stuff ...
50
51    Reference the thistext|
52
53    Reference the thistext |
54
55    Reference the thistext|
56
57    Reference the thistext |
58
59    Reference the thistext|
60
61    Reference the thistext |
62
63    Reference the thistext|
64
65    Reference the thistext|
66
67    Reference the thistext |
68
69    And then throw in a few new ones of my own.
70
71    foo
72
73    foo
74
75    "bar" in foo
76
77    "baz boo" in foo
78
79    "bar"
80
81    "baz boo"
82
83    "baz boo"
84
85    "baz boo" in foo bar
86
87    "baz boo" in foo bar
88
89    "boo" in foo bar baz
90
91    "boo var baz"
92
93    "bar baz"
94
95    "boo bar baz / baz boo"
96
97    "boo", "bar", and "baz"
98
99    foobar
100
101    Testing *italics*
102
103    "*Italic* text" in foo
104
105    "Section "with" *other markup*" in foo|bar
106
107    Nested <http://www.perl.org/>
108
109OVER AND ITEMS
110    Taken from Pod::Parser tests, this is a test to ensure that multiline
111    =item paragraphs get indented appropriately.
112
113    This is a test.
114
115    There should be whitespace now before this line.
116
117    Taken from Pod::Parser tests, this is a test to ensure the nested =item
118    paragraphs get indented appropriately.
119
120    1 First section.
121
122      a this is item a
123
124      b this is item b
125
126    2 Second section.
127
128      a this is item a
129
130      b this is item b
131
132      c
133      d This is item c & d.
134
135    Now some additional weirdness of our own. Make sure that multiple tags
136    for one paragraph are properly compacted.
137
138    "foo"
139    bar
140    "baz"
141        There shouldn't be any spaces between any of these item tags; this
142        idiom is used in perlfunc.
143
144    Some longer item text
145        Just to make sure that we test paragraphs where the item text
146        doesn't fit in the margin of the paragraph (and make sure that this
147        paragraph fills a few lines).
148
149        Let's also make it multiple paragraphs to be sure that works.
150
151    Test use of =over without =item as a block "quote" or block paragraph.
152
153        This should be indented four spaces but otherwise formatted the same
154        as any other regular text paragraph. Make sure it's long enough to
155        see the results of the formatting.....
156
157    Now try the same thing nested, and make sure that the indentation is
158    reset back properly.
159
160            This paragraph should be doubly indented.
161
162        This paragraph should only be singly indented.
163
164        *   This is an item in the middle of a block-quote, which should be
165            allowed.
166
167        *   We're also testing tagless item commands.
168
169        Should be back to the single level of indentation.
170
171    Should be back to regular indentation.
172
173    Now also check the transformation of * into real bullets for man pages.
174
175    *   An item. We're also testing using =over without a number, and making
176        sure that item text wraps properly.
177
178    *   Another item.
179
180    and now test the numbering of item blocks.
181
182    1.  First item.
183
184    2.  Second item.
185
186FORMATTING CODES
187    Another test taken from Pod::Parser.
188
189    This is a test to see if I can do not only $self and "method()", but
190    also "$self->method()" and "$self->{FIELDNAME}" and "$Foo <=> $Bar"
191    without resorting to escape sequences. If I want to refer to the
192    right-shift operator I can do something like "$x >> 3" or even "$y >>
193    5".
194
195    Now for the grand finale of "$self->method()->{FIELDNAME} = {FOO=>BAR}".
196    And I also want to make sure that newlines work like this
197    "$self->{FOOBAR} >> 3 and [$b => $a]->[$a <=> $b]"
198
199    Of course I should still be able to do all this *with* escape sequences
200    too: "$self->method()" and "$self->{FIELDNAME}" and "{FOO=>BAR}".
201
202    Dont forget "$self->method()->{FIELDNAME} = {FOO=>BAR}".
203
204    And make sure that 0 works too!
205
206    Now, if I use << or >> as my delimiters, then I have to use whitespace.
207    So things like "<$self-"method()>> and "<$self-"{FIELDNAME}>> wont end
208    up doing what you might expect since the first > will still terminate
209    the first < seen.
210
211    Lets make sure these work for empty ones too, like and ">>" (just to be
212    obnoxious)
213
214    The statement: "This is dog kind's *finest* hour!" is a parody of a
215    quotation from Winston Churchill.
216
217    The following tests are added to those:
218
219    Make sure that a few other odd *things* still work. This should be a
220    vertical bar: |. Here's a test of a few more special escapes that have
221    to be supported:
222
223    &  An ampersand.
224
225    '  An apostrophe.
226
227    <  A less-than sign.
228
229    >  A greater-than sign.
230
231    "  A double quotation mark.
232
233    /  A forward slash.
234
235    Try to get this bit of text over towards the edge so
236    |that all of this text inside S<> won't| be wrapped. Also test the
237    |same thing with non-breaking spaces.|
238
239    There is a soft hyphen in hyphen at hy-phen.
240
241    This is a test of an index entry.
242
243VERBATIM
244    Throw in a few verbatim paragraphs.
245
246        use Term::ANSIColor;
247        print color 'bold blue';
248        print "This text is bold blue.\n";
249        print color 'reset';
250        print "This text is normal.\n";
251        print colored ("Yellow on magenta.\n", 'yellow on_magenta');
252        print "This text is normal.\n";
253        print colored ['yellow on_magenta'], "Yellow on magenta.\n";
254
255        use Term::ANSIColor qw(uncolor);
256        print uncolor '01;31', "\n";
257
258    But this isn't verbatim (make sure it wraps properly), and the next
259    paragraph is again:
260
261        use Term::ANSIColor qw(:constants);
262        print BOLD, BLUE, "This text is in bold blue.\n", RESET;
263
264        use Term::ANSIColor qw(:constants); $Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET = 1; print BOLD BLUE "This text is in bold blue.\n"; print "This text is normal.\n";
265
266    (Ugh, that's obnoxiously long.) Try different spacing:
267
268            Starting with a tab.
269    Not
270    starting
271    with
272    a
273    tab.  But this should still be verbatim.
274     As should this.
275
276    This isn't.
277
278     This is.  And this:    is an internal tab.  It should be:
279                        |--| <= lined up with that.
280
281    (Tricky, but tabs should be expanded before the translator starts in on
282    the text since otherwise text with mixed tabs and spaces will get messed
283    up.)
284
285        And now we test verbatim paragraphs right before a heading.  Older
286        versions of Pod::Man generated two spaces between paragraphs like this
287        and the heading.  (In order to properly test this, one may have to
288        visually inspect the nroff output when run on the generated *roff
289        text, unfortunately.)
290
291CONCLUSION
292    That's all, folks!
