NAME
       Pod::Simple::SimpleTree -- parse Pod into a simple parse tree

SYNOPSIS
         % cat ptest.pod

         =head1 PIE

         I like B<pie>!

         % perl -MPod::Simple::SimpleTree -MData::Dumper -e \
            "print Dumper(Pod::Simple::SimpleTree->new->parse_file(shift)->root)" \
            ptest.pod

         $VAR1 = [
                   'Document',
                   { 'start_line' => 1 },
                   [
                     'head1',
                     { 'start_line' => 1 },
                     'PIE'
                   ],
                   [
                     'Para',
                     { 'start_line' => 3 },
                     'I like ',
                     [
                       'B',
                       {},
                       'pie'
                     ],

                   ]
                 ];

DESCRIPTION
       This class is of interest to people writing a Pod processor/formatter.

       This class takes Pod and parses it, returning a parse tree made just of arrayrefs, and
       hashrefs, and strings.

       This is a subclass of Pod::Simple and inherits all its methods.

       This class is inspired by XML::Parser's "Tree" parsing-style, although it doesn't use
       exactly the same LoL format.

METHODS
       At the end of the parse, call "$parser->root" to get the tree's top node.

Tree Contents
       Every element node in the parse tree is represented by an arrayref of the form: "[
       elementname, \%attributes, ...subnodes... ]".  See the example tree dump in the Synopsis,
       above.

       Every text node in the tree is represented by a simple (non-ref) string scalar.  So you
       can test "ref($node)" to see whather you have an element node or just a text node.

       The top node in the tree is "[ 'Document', \%attributes, ...subnodes... ]"
