@pindex msgattrib

@cindex @code{msgattrib} program, usage
|
|
@example
|
|
msgattrib [@var{option}] [@var{inputfile}]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@cindex filter messages according to attributes
|
|
@cindex attribute manipulation
|
|
The @code{msgattrib} program filters the messages of a translation catalog
|
|
according to their attributes, and manipulates the attributes.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Input file location
|
|
|
|
@table @samp
|
|
@item @var{inputfile}
|
|
Input PO file.
|
|
|
|
@item -D @var{directory}
|
|
@itemx --directory=@var{directory}
|
|
@opindex -D@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
@opindex --directory@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Add @var{directory} to the list of directories. Source files are
|
|
searched relative to this list of directories. The resulting @file{.po}
|
|
file will be written relative to the current directory, though.
|
|
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
If no @var{inputfile} is given or if it is @samp{-}, standard input is read.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Output file location
|
|
|
|
@table @samp
|
|
@item -o @var{file}
|
|
@itemx --output-file=@var{file}
|
|
@opindex -o@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
@opindex --output-file@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Write output to specified file.
|
|
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
The results are written to standard output if no output file is specified
|
|
or if it is @samp{-}.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Message selection
|
|
|
|
@table @samp
|
|
@item --translated
|
|

|
|
Keep translated messages, remove untranslated messages.
|
|
|
|
@item --untranslated
|
|
@opindex --untranslated@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Keep untranslated messages, remove translated messages.

|
@item --no-fuzzy
|
|
@opindex --no-fuzzy@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|

|
|
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
@subsection Attribute manipulation
|
|
|
|
@cindex modify message attrributes
|
|
Attributes are modified after the message selection/removal has been
|
|
performed. If the @samp{--only-file} or @samp{--ignore-file} option is
|
|
specified, the attribute modification is applied only to those messages
|
|
that are listed in the @var{only-file} and not listed in the
|
|
@var{ignore-file}.

|
|
|
@table @samp
|
|
@item --set-fuzzy
|
|
@opindex --set-fuzzy@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|

|
|
|
|
@item --clear-fuzzy
|
|
@opindex --clear-fuzzy@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|

|
|
@opindex --only-file@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|

|
|
@var{file} should be a PO or POT file.
|
|
|
|
@item --ignore-file=@var{file}
|
|
@opindex --ignore-file@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|

|
|
@var{file} should be a PO or POT file.
|
|
|
|
@item --fuzzy
|
|
@opindex --fuzzy@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Synonym for @samp{--only-fuzzy --clear-fuzzy}: It keeps only the fuzzy
|
|
messages and removes their `fuzzy' mark.
|
|
|
|
@item --obsolete

|
|
syntax, not in PO file syntax.
|
|
|
|
@item --stringtable-input
|
|
@opindex --stringtable-input@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Assume the input file is a NeXTstep/GNUstep localized resource file in

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
@item --strict
|
|
@opindex --strict@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Write out a strict Uniforum conforming PO file. Note that this
|
|
Uniforum format should be avoided because it doesn't support the
|
|
GNU extensions.
|
|
|
|
@item -p
|
|
@itemx --properties-output
|
|
@opindex -p@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
@opindex --properties-output@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Write out a Java ResourceBundle in Java @code{.properties} syntax. Note
|
|
that this file format doesn't support plural forms and silently drops
|
|
obsolete messages.
|
|
|
|
@item --stringtable-output
|
|
@opindex --stringtable-output@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|

|
|
(= number of screen columns) is less or equal to the given @var{number}.
|
|
|
|
@item --no-wrap
|
|
@opindex --no-wrap@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
Do not break long message lines. Message lines whose width exceeds the

|
|
lines which are wider than the output page width will be split.
|

|
|

|
@opindex -s@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
|
|
@opindex --sort-output@r{, @code{msgattrib} option}
