Since OOo is the standard for Typo3, which may be unsuitable for 
lightweight documentation, you might be interested in using this

http://search.cpan.org/~cbouvi/Pod-OOoWriter/bin/pod2ooo

Since I'm not a perl hacker, I'd like to see something like reST2sxw but 
using Pod is better (and probably faster) than waiting for OO to start up ;)

Michael
