When I view man pages generated from POD on OS X, there is a 7-space indent:
PERL(1) Perl Programmers Reference Guide PERL(1)
NAME
perl - Practical Extraction and Report Language
<-----> 7 spaces
t/podcheck.t is assuming an 8-space nroff indent when checking for long verbatim lines. Not realising that, I programmed the 7-space indent into autodoc.pl.
Does that 8-space indent actually occur anywhere, or was it just an assumption?
