That is nice. ++

I encountered a similar problem when I wanted to load some Pod documentation onto a Kwiki site at work. However, since nobody else there used Pod I took another approach and wrote a parser as a subclass of Sean Burke's Pod::Simple.

The module is Pod::Simple::Wiki. It is still a work in progress but here is a simple pod2kwiki filter based on it.

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w

    use strict;
    use Pod::Simple::Wiki;

    my $parser = Pod::Simple::Wiki->new('kwiki');

    if (defined $ARGV[0]) {
        open IN, $ARGV[0]  or die "Couldn't open $ARGV[0]: $!\n";
    }
    else {
        *IN = *STDIN;
    }

    if (defined $ARGV[1]) {
        open OUT, ">$ARGV[1]" or die "Couldn't open $ARGV[1]: $!\n";
    } 
    else {
        *OUT = *STDOUT;
    }

    $parser->output_fh(*OUT);
    $parser->parse_file(*IN);

Pod to Kwiki isn't currently a one to one mapping. Kwiki doesn't yet support term lists and definition lists and it isn't possible to escape camel case words in inline code sections.

Here is an example of the the Parse::RecDescent docs converted from Pod to Kwiki to Html.
