Not the cleanest API that I've seen but it works.  I'm still surprised there are no OO pod parsers.
perl -e 'use strict;use warnings;use Pod::Simple::SimpleTree;use Data::Dumper qw{Dumper};
while (my $file=shift) {  #print "$file\n";   my $pod=Pod::Simple::SimpleTree->new->parse_file($file)->root;   #print Dumper($pod);  {    my @copy = @$pod;    while (@copy) {      my $object = shift @copy;      #print Dumper($object);      last if (ref($object) eq "ARRAY" and $object->[0] eq "head1" and $object->[2] eq "NAME");    }    my $object = shift @copy;    my $text   = $object->[2];    print "$file - $text\n";  }}' `find -name "*.p?"
This pulls the pod NAME from 2039 Perl files.
