I have just released the new module ePod.

To write the POD of my modules I was using a simpler way to write POD (that I call easy-POD or ePod), then for a documentation project I introduced this ePod, and the doctors where able to write their texts easy and fast whit it.

Soo, I turned this into a module and published it to the public:
http://cpan.org/authors/id/G/GM/GMPASSOS/ePod-0.01.tar.gz

ePod syntax is very simple and intuitive, that I just need to show an example that you get it (specially if you know POD): 

=> Tutorial Sampler

text bla bla bla bla

==> Sub topic X

X is before Y.

==> Sub topic Y

Y is before Z.

*> A

text of the item A.

**> A.1

***> A.1.1

**> A.2

=> Author

Foo <foo at mail.foo>

But the POD syntax is compatible with ePod, soo you still can use I<>, B<>. L<> and C<> formaters, the =include command, and VERBATIN data: 
=> Break Math

Some simple Math:

  ## A simple definition:
  A = B

  ## Now multiply both side by A:
  A**2 = AB

  ## Now add A**2 - 2AB in both sides:
  A**2 + A**2 - 2AB = AB + A**2 - 2AB 

  ## That we can simplify by:
  2(A**2 -AB) = A**2 - AB

  ## And finally we divide both sides by A**2 - AB:
  2 = 1

Soo, 2 is really equal 1?
But we didn't anything wrong!
Hummm, take a deep look!

But the best thing of ePod is to use it to fix things that you generally make in POD, soo this is a valid syntax: 
=> Don't worry about lines and spaces!
We can write everything grouped.
*> including itens
and their texts!
==> And now we know why POD need the spaces,
since we can see how the text looks ugly in this way.

Well, I hope that this can be useful for others. Enjoy! ;-P

In reply to ePod - write easy and simple in easy-POD, convert to POD, and from there you know the way. by gmpassos
