Thanks stefan_k but I have already done that. The first thing the problem script does is recurse the tree and standardise all the line endings to \012. It also fixes the annoying /^\s+\012/ blank lines (but with spaces) that choke pod2html.

Update - ++ stefan_k

I looked at my code and the s/\015\012/\012/g is run AFTER the calls to pod2html. Do it first and.....problem solved

cheers
