Thnx, but I really need to do it without using any POD-Parser.

    Why?

    package Cow { use Moo; has name => (is => 'lazy', default => sub { 'Mooington' }) } say Cow->new->name

      this is an exercise

      no parsing modules allowed :(

        OK, that's a good reason.

        I was expecting you to say that you were unable to install any modules (for some reason), in which case I'd counter with the fact that Pod::Parser comes pre-installed with Perl.

        package Cow { use Moo; has name => (is => 'lazy', default => sub { 'Mooington' }) } say Cow->new->name

        I have to say, a very stupid exercise!

        you can only show how to write either incomplete or redundant code.

        UPDATE

        to answer AnoMonk:

        Duplicating the POD-grammar in a separate parser is practically the same sin like writing a source filter for Perl code.

        So either incomplete or redundant code, like already said!
