6 Pod::PseudoPod::LaTeX - convert Pod::PseudoPod documents into LaTeX
7
9 This module is a "Pod::PseudoPod" subclass, itself a "Pod::Simple"
10 subclass. This means that this is a full-fledged POD parser. Anything
11 those modules can do, this can do.
12
13 Perhaps a little code snippet.
14
15 use Pod::PseudoPod::LaTeX;
16
17 my $parser = Pod::PseudoPod::LaTeX->new();
18 $parser->emit_environments( sidebar => 'sidebar' );
19 $parser->output_fh( $some_fh );
20 $parser->parse_file( 'some_document.pod' );
21
22 ...
23
25 The generated LaTeX code needs some packages to be loaded to work
26 correctly. Currently it needs
27
28 \usepackage{fancyvrb} % for Screen and Verbatim environments
29 \usepackage{url} % for L<> URLs
30 \usepackage{titleref} % for A<> generated code
31
32 The standard font in LaTeX (Computer Modern) does not support bold and
33 italic variants of its monospace font, an alternative is
34
35 \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
36 \usepackage{textcomp}
37 \usepackage[scaled]{beramono}
38
40 Currently we support:
41
42 "keep_ligatures"
43 LaTeX usually joins some pairs of letters (ff, fi and fl), named
44 ligatures. By default the module splits them. If you prefer to
45 render them with ligatures, use:
46
47 my $parser = Pod::PseudoPod::LaTeX->new( keep_ligatures => 1 );
48
49 "captions_below"
50 Set this flag to a true value if you prefer that figure and table
51 captions are placed below the object and not above (the default).
52
53 "full"
54 Create a standalone document which can immediately be run through
55 "latex" or "pdflatex".
56
58 The "emit_environments" method accepts a hashref whose keys are POD
59 environments and values are LaTeX environments. Use this method if you
60 would like "Pod::PseudoPod::LaTeX" to emit a simple
61 "\begin{foo}...\end{foo}" environment rather than emit specific
62 formatting codes. You must define any environments you use in this way
63 in your LaTeX prelude.
64
65 You can define your own environments easily. First you need to define
66 the "=begin...=end" environment with:
67
68 $parser->acept_target_as_text('my_environment');
69
70 Then, you can use the "emit_environments" method to tell
71 "Pod::PseudoPod::LaTeX" what LaTeX environment to emit:
72
73 $parser->emit_environments('my_environment' => 'latex_env');
74
75 Also, if "my_environment" is used in POD with a title, it is passed as
76 the first argument to the LaTeX environment. That is,
77
78 =begin my_environment Some title
79
80 Will generate
81
82 \begin{latex_env}{Some title}

120 See also perlpod, Pod::Simple and Pod::TeX. I did not reuse the latter
121 because I need to support the additional POD directives found in
122 PseudoPod.
