Perl 6 Pod is awesome markup language. I use the Pod as often as possible.
For example, for creating presentations. How am I doing this?


code

I open my favirite text editor and start presentation with а C<DESCRIPTION>:


=begin code
  =for DESCRIPTION :title('presentation template in Perl 6 Pod format')
  = :author('Aliaksanr Zahatski') :pubdate('2011')
=end code


The named blocks C<=Slide> are used to describe each presentation screen:


=begin code
 B<=begin Slide :title('About me')>
 
 http://search.cpan.org/$\sim$zag/
 
 lang/rakudo  ( FreeBSD )
 
 Russian book "Everything about Perl 6" 

 B<=end Slide>
=end code


Lists are specified as a series of C<=item> blocks :


=begin code
 =begin Slide :title('Content')
 
 key moments:
 
 =item features
 =item implementations
 =item usage
  
 =end Slide
=end code


A C<=Image> block is used for insert pictures:


=begin code
 =for Image :width('3in')
 i/si26.jpg
=end code


The C<=config> directive allows you to prespecify default images size:


=begin code
 =config Image :width('2in')
=end code


For specifying the code samples use standart Pod block with attribute C<lang>:


=begin code
 =for code B<:lang('Perl')>
 my @keys = <a b c d e>;
 my @vals = ^5;
 my %hash = @keys Z @vals;
=end code


=begin code
 =begin code B<:lang('JavaScript')>
 var keys = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
 var values = [1, 2, 3];
 var map = {}; //this is a comment
 for(var i in keys) {
  map[ keys[i] ] = values[i];
 }
 =end code
=end code


Image

The following example demonstrates the use of pauses:


=begin code
 =begin Slide :title('Perl6::Pod::Slide: pause demo')
 Now :
 B<=Pause>
 =for item :numbered
 Lists
 =for item :numbered B<:pause>
 Tables
 =for item :numbered
 Headers
 =end Slide
=end code


=begin code
 =Latex
 \[
   \Gamma_0 S_0 (1-\alpha)^2 = k_d \alpha^2
   \quad \Rightarrow \quad
   \Bigl(\frac{1-\alpha}{\alpha}\Bigr)^2 = \frac{k_d}{\Gamma_0 S_0}
 \]
=end code


To insert a vector graphics I use coneverter C<epstopdf>, and then insert it with C<=Image> block.


Fork presentation template N<Presentation template in Perl 6 Pod format.L<https://github.com/zag/template-pod6>> designed for easy start and type "C<make>" to build pdf file.


You will need the following software to be installed: latex-beamer, Perl 5  and  Perl6-Pod-Slide N<Perl6::Pod::Slide - make slides easy. L<http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Perl6::Pod::Slide>>.
