<p>Converts files from pod format (see <a href="perlpod.html">perlpod</a>) to HTML format.</p>
<a name="ARGUMENTS"></a><h1>ARGUMENTS</h1>
<p>pod2html takes the following arguments:</p>

will be relative. Not passing this causes all links to be absolute since this
is the value that tells Pod::Html the root of the documentation tree.</p>

exclusive.</p>
