 Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML is a subclass of Pod::Simple that parses Pod and
 turns it into indented and wrapped XML.  This class is of interest to
 people writing Pod formatters based on Pod::Simple.

 Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML inherits methods from Pod::Simple.

 Pod::Simple::XMLOutStream is rather like this class.
 Pod::Simple::XMLOutStream's output is space-padded in a way that's better
 for sending to an XML processor (that is, it has no ignorable
 whitespace). But Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML's output is much more human-
 readable, being (more-or-less) one token per line, with line-wrapping.

 Pod::Simple::DumpAsText is rather like this class, except that it doesn't
 dump with XML syntax.  Try them and see which one you like best!
