+=head1 NAME
+
+Pod::ParseLink - Parse an LE<lt>E<gt> formatting code in POD text
+
+=for stopwords
+markup Allbery URL
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Pod::ParseLink;
+ my ($text, $inferred, $name, $section, $type) = parselink ($link);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module only provides a single function, parselink(), which takes the
+text of an LE<lt>E<gt> formatting code and parses it. It returns the
+anchor text for the link (if any was given), the anchor text possibly
+inferred from the name and section, the name or URL, the section if any,
+and the type of link. The type will be one of C<url>, C<pod>, or C<man>,
+indicating a URL, a link to a POD page, or a link to a Unix manual page.
+
+Parsing is implemented per L<perlpodspec>. For backward compatibility,
+links where there is no section and name contains spaces, or links where the
+entirety of the link (except for the anchor text if given) is enclosed in
+double-quotes are interpreted as links to a section (LE<lt>/sectionE<gt>).
+
+The inferred anchor text is implemented per L<perlpodspec>:
+
+ L<name> => L<name|name>
+ L</section> => L<"section"|/section>
+ L<name/section> => L<"section" in name|name/section>
+
+The name may contain embedded EE<lt>E<gt> and ZE<lt>E<gt> formatting codes,
+and the section, anchor text, and inferred anchor text may contain any
+formatting codes. Any double quotes around the section are removed as part
+of the parsing, as is any leading or trailing whitespace.
+
+If the text of the LE<lt>E<gt> escape is entirely enclosed in double
+quotes, it's interpreted as a link to a section for backward
+compatibility.
+
+No attempt is made to resolve formatting codes. This must be done after
+calling parselink() (since EE<lt>E<gt> formatting codes can be used to
+escape characters that would otherwise be significant to the parser and
+resolving them before parsing would result in an incorrect parse of a
+formatting code like:
+
+ L<verticalE<verbar>barE<sol>slash>
+
+which should be interpreted as a link to the C<vertical|bar/slash> POD page
+and not as a link to the C<slash> section of the C<bar> POD page with an
+anchor text of C<vertical>. Note that not only the anchor text will need to
+have formatting codes expanded, but so will the target of the link (to deal
+with EE<lt>E<gt> and ZE<lt>E<gt> formatting codes), and special handling of
+the section may be necessary depending on whether the translator wants to
+consider markup in sections to be significant when resolving links. See
+L<perlpodspec> for more information.
