perlpod(1) is already installed by default on Debian and
RedHat-based systems; and probably most modern *nixes; pandoc(1)
(and Haskell) are not.

POD also more standardized than Markdown (which flavor? :P),
especially for generating manpages.  So save any potential
documentation editors some disk space by not forcing them to install
Haskell and pandoc.

Finally, I'm a mildly proficient in Perl and do not know Haskell
at all and have a better chance at reading/hacking the source if
the document generator breaks.

-Effects in dtas-player may be applied either at the source or the sink.
-They are applied in the order described.
-
-1. source effects
-
-  Source effects are effects which should be applied per-source and do not
-  rely on inter-track information.
-
-  Examples include:
-  - ReplayGain (simple gain changes)
-  - anything which does not change the length of the audio:
-    gain, stereo, highpass, lowpass, loudness, bass, treble, equalizer, ...
-
-  Modifying source effects should introduce no extra gaps in playback.
-  Effects which modify the length of the audio is not recommended here,
-  as seek functionality will be impaired.
-
-2. sink effects
-
-  Sink effects are any effects which:
-
-  1) should only be applied to a specific sink
-  2) effects which require inter-track information
-     (multiband delays/compressors/expanders)
-  3) alter the length of the audio
-
-  In a multi-zone audio system (where each zone has its own sink), sink
-  effects may also customize the sound of a certain zone while not
-  affecting others.
-
-  Examples include:
-  - equalizer effects (highpass/bass/treble/equalizer)
-  - loudness
-  - delaying a certain channel or frequency range for time-alignment
-  - compressors/limiters
-  - reverb
-  - gain
-  - remix (for stereo image adjustments)
-
-  Additionally, effects which are necessary due to the limitation of the
-  playback hardware are applied at the sink:
-
-  - rate
-  - dither
-  - remix (static channel mappings)
