Thank you, this is of some help.

Very useful to know putting pod in /* comments */ would do it.
I really appreciate your suggestion about t/, I will implement. Very classy solution.

Personally, putting pod in its own files has helped me maintain the code. It's a little tiny bit more a pain to have more files to keep track of.
I find that having the .pod files draws me to the fact that I have to document.
It helps me keep track of what the API is supposed to do.
I may write a .pod file as an idea and come back later to consolidate reality with plan.

It helps to have both code and doc open next to each other- to go back and forth- yes yes.. I know.. two windows on vi.. Somehow I'm still a mere mortal here.

What are some concrete reasons for which you suggest against the practice mentioned?
