Open SSL Documentation Question
Message 1 in thread
QT's SSL implementation depends on OpenSSL.
I have downloaded openssl from openssl.org and uzipped the tar file.
The Doc folder contains a bunch of files with the .POD suffix.
What application do I need to access/navigate the .POD files?
Thanks
Charley

Pod documents are ususally perls 'Plain Old Documentation'.

If you have perl installed they can most likely be converted and read
with pod2text / pod2html / pod2latex.

Apologies for intruding on the QT Interest list with a QT Solutions
question, but all you guys are so smart and know so much about everything
like this, I thought I'd try asking here.
Can someone point me in the direction of a utility to read the .POD
documents that are part of the Open SSL distribution?
TIA,
charley

Perl has all of the utilities like `perldoc` or pod2text or pod2html
other pod2... stuff.
It should be preinstalled on Linux or Mac.
For Windows, you can get Perl from here,
http://www.perl.com/download.csp#win32
Alternatively, you can read them in wordpad as plain text, although this
method may be a little bit cumbersome.
