+=head1 NAME
+
+Pod::Perldoc::ToText - let Perldoc render Pod as plaintext
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  perldoc -o text Some::Modulename
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use
+Pod::Text as a formatter class.
+
+It supports the following options, which are explained in
+L<Pod::Text>: alt, indent, loose, quotes, sentence, width
+
+For example:
+
+  perldoc -o text -w indent:5 Some::Modulename
+
+=head1 CAVEAT
+
+This module may change to use a different text formatter class in the
+future, and this may change what options are supported.
