+=head1 NAME
+
+Pod::Perldoc::ToRtf - let Perldoc render Pod as RTF
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ perldoc -o rtf Some::Modulename
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use
+Pod::Simple::RTF as a formatter class.
+
+This is actually a Pod::Simple::RTF subclass, and inherits
+all its options.
+
+You have to have Pod::Simple::RTF installed (from the Pod::Simple dist),
+or this module won't work.
+
+If Perldoc is running under MSWin and uses this class as a formatter,
+the output will be opened with F<write.exe> or whatever program is
+specified in the environment variable C<RTFREADER>. For example, to
+specify that RTF files should be opened the same as they are when you
+double-click them, you would do C<set RTFREADER=start.exe> in your
+F<autoexec.bat>.
+
+Handy tip: put C<set PERLDOC=-ortf> in your F<autoexec.bat>
+and that will set this class as the default formatter to run when
+you do C<perldoc whatever>.
