Chas Owens asked:
Would this work as well?say :to(END); \x{3D}begin POD blah blah blah \x{3D}end POD END
Yes, except for the :to actually needing to be qq:to (which was wrong all the way through these examples, BTW). You could also just use: say qq:to(END); \=begin POD blah blah blah \=end POD END Damian
