Now I've watched the POD file specification:

http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl/pod/perlpodspec.pod
http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl/pod/perlpod.pod

There seems to be a =3Dencoding command. Maybe this should be added by the=
=20
Pod module, taking the result of TT::get_out_charset()

I've tried adding it manually and this is the mpod2html response:

*** ERROR: Unknown command 'encoding' at line 14 in file html/tmp/po4a.7.po=
d

And here's the pod2man one:

po4a.7.pod:14: Unknown command paragraph "=3Dencoding utf-8"

Is this an unsupported feature or am I doing something wrong? :S
