# Pod::PseudoPod::Checker(3pm)

## NAME

Pod::PseudoPod::Checker -- check the PseudoPod syntax of a document

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use Pod::PseudoPod::Checker;
  my $checker = Pod::PseudoPod::Checker->new();
  ...
  $checker->parse_file('path/to/file.pod');
```

## DESCRIPTION

This class is for checking the syntactic validity of Pod. It works by basically acting like a simple-minded version of Pod::PseudoPod::Text that formats only the "Pod Errors" section (if Pod::PseudoPod even generates one for the given document). It's largely unchanged from Pod::Simple::Checker.

## SEE ALSO

Pod::PseudoPod, Pod::PseudoPod::Text, Pod::Checker
