in reply to Introspective POD

I wanted this five years ago and hacked something together which you may find useful.

It's probably fragile, incomplete, YMMV, etc. and I haven't touched it in like forever. But if you can find a use for it... please, go ahead :)

    Ah, will have a look at that - cheers. It'd be nice if there was some dynamic way to do this, eh... like a switch for the perldoc script to move up the inheritance tree up to a predefined level, running pod2usage on the parents or something and feeding that to the pager, appended to the current module's pod.
      running pod2usage on the parents

      Eh... I don't quite understand what you mean by that, IIRC pod2usage is used to generate a script's documentation from POD. Would you care to elaborate?
