The po/ directory includes two perlscripts, which is done to help
|
||||
making the translations fully uptodate.
|
||||
|
||||
The first script is called update.pl and is supposed to be run like this:
|
||||
|
||||
./update.pl [OPTIONS] ...LANGCODE
|
||||
|
||||
This will updates the pot file (the po template, generated from the source code)
|
||||
and merge them with the translations po files.
|
||||
|
||||
For instance to do this for Danish, type the following
|
||||
|
||||
./update.pl da
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The update.pl script also supports other options, they are:
|
||||
|
||||
-V, --version shows the version
|
||||
-H, --help shows this help page
|
||||
-P, --pot only generates the potfile
|
||||
-M, --maintain search for missing files in POTFILES.in
|
||||
|
||||
Especially the --maintain option is very handy for package maintainer, to check
|
||||
if you included all the files that have marked strings in the POTFILES.in, so
|
||||
they will be in the generated po template, the socalled pot file.
|
||||
|
||||
There is though one thing to take notice of with this option, please check the
|
||||
configure.in file to make sure that the files you add to POTFILES.in are being
|
||||
build, otherwise this can leed to "make dist" throuble.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The other utility is the desk.pl script, which will check the cvs module for
|
||||
missing translation in files like *.desktop, *.directory, *.soundlist and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
Run the script like this:
|
||||
|
||||
./desk.pl [OPTIONS] ...LANGCODE ENTRY
|
||||
|
||||
An example use could be.
|
||||
|
||||
./desk.pl da
|
||||
|
||||
which will check all the files for missing Name[da] entries, or
|
||||
|
||||
./desk.pl no Comment
|
||||
|
||||
which will check all the files for missing Comment[no] entries. "Comment" can
|
||||
here be replaced with whatever you like
|
||||
|
||||
All scripts support the --help option for further help, though it's not very
|
||||
extensive for the moment.
