+=head1 NAME
+
+Pod::Text::Overstrike - Convert POD data to formatted overstrike text
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Pod::Text::Overstrike;
+ my $parser = Pod::Text::Overstrike->new (sentence => 0, width => 78);
+
+ # Read POD from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
+ $parser->parse_from_filehandle;
+
+ # Read POD from file.pod and write to file.txt.
+ $parser->parse_from_file ('file.pod', 'file.txt');
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Pod::Text::Overstrike is a simple subclass of Pod::Text that highlights
+output text using overstrike sequences, in a manner similar to nroff.
+Characters in bold text are overstruck (character, backspace, character) and
+characters in underlined text are converted to overstruck underscores
+(underscore, backspace, character). This format was originally designed for
+hardcopy terminals and/or lineprinters, yet is readable on softcopy (CRT)
+terminals.
+
+Overstruck text is best viewed by page-at-a-time programs that take
+advantage of the terminal's B<stand-out> and I<underline> capabilities, such
+as the less program on Unix.
+
+Apart from the overstrike, it in all ways functions like Pod::Text. See
+L<Pod::Text> for details and available options.
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+Currently, the outermost formatting instruction wins, so for example
+underlined text inside a region of bold text is displayed as simply bold.
+There may be some better approach possible.
