=head1 NAME

Pod::Perldoc::ToNroff - let Perldoc convert Pod to nroff

=head1 SYNOPSIS

perldoc -o nroff -d something.3 Some::Modulename

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use
Pod::Man as a formatter class.

The following options are supported: center, date, fixed, fixedbold,
fixeditalic, fixedbolditalic, quotes, release, section

Those options are explained in L<Pod::Man>.

For example:

perldoc -o nroff -w center:Pod -d something.3 Some::Modulename

=head1 CAVEAT

This module may change to use a different pod-to-nroff formatter class
in the future, and this may change what options are supported.
