Subject: [PATCH v4 00/11] Transform documentation into POD
Date:   Fri, 18 Feb 2022 19:16:17 +0100

This series transforms the free-form general comments - mainly the usage
instructions and the meta information - into the standard Perl
documentation format. Some of the original text is reduced out. And some
is simply dropped.

The transformation includes language, paragraphing and editorial
corrections.

The only change in the script execution flow is the replacement of the
'usage' function with the native standard Perl 'pod2usage'.

The to-do suggestion to write POD found in the script is ancient, thus
I can't address its author with a "Suggested-by" tag.

This version follows the advice received on v3, except I'm leaving
the old copyrights untouched.

The process consists of 14 steps.

Patches beginning with no 3 are disfunctional until no 9 has been
applied.

1) Add the basic POD sections
2) Relink argument parsing error handling to pod2usage

The following subseries is disfunctional before its last part.

3) Translate the DESCRIPTION section
4) Translate the "Output format selection" subsection of OPTIONS
5) Translate the "Output format selection modifier" subsection of OPTIONS
6) Translate the "Output selection" subsection of OPTIONS
7) Translate the "Output selection modifiers" subsection of OPTIONS
8) Translate the "Other parameters" subsection of OPTIONS
9) Replace the usage function
    
Here the DESCRIPTION and OPTIONS subseries is finished. The -h and -help
parameters are handled by POD now.
    
10) Drop obsolete comments
11) Refresh the copyright lines

Let's see what's wrong this time.
