How do you like the following:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Pod::Usage   qw( pod2usage  );
use Getopt::Long qw( GetOptions );


sub program_options {
   my ($options) = @_;

   GetOptions(
      'help'    => \{$options->{help}},
      'verbose' => \{$options->{verbose}},
      'name:s'  => \{$options->{name}},
   ) or die "Couldn't read command line options";

   my @errors;

   push @errors, "Input is required\n" unless $options{name};

   pod2usage(@errors) if @errors;

   if (@errors || $options{help}) {
      pod2usage(<<'__EOI__');
Usage:
 To execute: perl ProgramName <argument>
 Help: perl ProgramName --help or perl ProgramName --h
__EOI__

      die("\n");
   }

}


# Get command line options
my %options;
program_options(\%options);
