in reply to Using PerlPod Creatively

Sounds like ordinary multi-line comments.

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; =for comment @ARGV==2 or die "oops"; say for @ARGV; exit(0); =cut @ARGV==1 or die "Ooops"; print "$ARGV[0]\n"; exit(0);

A good editor understands POD in perl mode and shows it as commented-out. Recent versions of joe do, as does Notepad++.
