How do I take advantage of this? I turn it on but I do not know how to get
it to display a help message. If I pass in -h --help it just ends. I am
assuming I need some kind of pod file but I am unknowledgeable on how to
write a pod file. Also how do I tell it what pod file to open?
Form perldoc Getopt::Long
Configuring Getopt::Long
Getopt::Long can be configured by calling subroutine
Getopt::Long::Configure(). This subroutine takes a list of quoted
strings, each specifying a configuration option to be enabled, e.g.
"ignore_case", or disabled, e.g. "no_ignore_case". Case does not matter.
Multiple calls to Configure() are possible.
auto_help (default:disabled)
Automatically provide support for the --help and -? options
if the application did not specify a handler for this option
itself.
Getopt::Long will provide a help message using module
Pod::Usage. The message, derived from the SYNOPSIS POD
section, will be written to standard output and processing
will terminate.
"auto_help" will be enabled if the calling program
explicitly specified a version number higher than 2.32 in
the "use" or "require" statement.
TIA,
Paul Kraus
