# Subject: POD lines with only spaces
#
# There are some places in the documentation where a POD directive is
# ignored because the line before it contains whitespace (and so the
# directive doesn't start a paragraph).  This patch adds a way to check
# for these to the pod Makefile (though it isn't made part of the build
# process, which would be a good idea), and fixes those places where the
# problem currently exists.
#
#  Version 1.00  Original.
#  Version 1.01  Andy Dougherty <doughera@lafayette.edu>
#    Trivial modifications to output format for easier auto-parsing
#    Broke it out as a separate function to avoid nasty
#       Make/Shell/Perl quoting problems, and also to make it easier
#       to grow.  Someone will probably want to rewrite in terms of
#       some sort of Pod::Checker module.  Or something.  Consider this
#       a placeholder for the future.
#  Version 1.02  Roderick Schertler <roderick@argon.org>
#       Check for pod directives following any kind of unempty line, not
#       just lines of whitespace.
