This is the typical usage of Pod::Usage (it's taken from its doc). Is it what you are looking for? 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

use Getopt::Long;
use Pod::Usage;

my $man = 0;
my $help = 0;
## Parse options and print usage if there is a syntax error,
## or if usage was explicitly requested.

GetOptions('help|?' => \$help, man => \$man) or pod2usage(2);
pod2usage(1) if $help;
pod2usage(-verbose => 2) if $man;

## If no arguments were given, then allow STDIN to be used only
## if it's not connected to a terminal (otherwise print usage)
pod2usage("$0: No files given.")  if ((@ARGV == 0) && (-t STDIN));
