in reply to Cygwin Pod::Usage malfunction?

Have you tried pod2usage all by itself in a script with just it and a little pod? You might get more help if your question was shorter and got right to this point.

    Thanks for the reply, and for the advice. (Sorry, looks like I had my personal --verbose option set.)

    Another data point:

    When you make a special program to test Pod::Usage, outside of the 'cookie cutter program' I showed in my first example, it WORKS.

    The only time Pod::Usage seems to be misfiring is in the original context above.

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w mystery.pl use Pod::Usage; pod2usage ( { -exit_status => 0, -verbose_level => 1 } ); __END__ =head1 SYNOPSIS mystery.pl tests Pod::Usage =head1 OPTIONS Yet this message DOES appear when you summon pod2usage, be it under Cygwin or AS . . . ?!?
