Generate binary message catalog from textual translation description.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
Similarly for optional arguments.
Input file location:
filename.po ... input files
-D, --directory=DIRECTORY add DIRECTORY to list for input files search
If input file is -, standard input is read.
Operation mode:
-j, --java Java mode: generate a Java ResourceBundle class
--java2 like --java, and assume Java2 (JDK 1.2 or higher)
--csharp C# mode: generate a .NET .dll file
--csharp-resources C# resources mode: generate a .NET .resources file
--tcl Tcl mode: generate a tcl/msgcat .msg file
--qt Qt mode: generate a Qt .qm file
Output file location:
-o, --output-file=FILE write output to specified file
--strict enable strict Uniforum mode
If output file is -, output is written to standard output.
Output file location in Java mode:
-r, --resource=RESOURCE resource name
-l, --locale=LOCALE locale name, either language or language_COUNTRY
-d DIRECTORY base directory of classes directory hierarchy
The class name is determined by appending the locale name to the resource name,
separated with an underscore. The -d option is mandatory. The class is
written under the specified directory.
Output file location in C# mode:
-r, --resource=RESOURCE resource name
-l, --locale=LOCALE locale name, either language or language_COUNTRY
-d DIRECTORY base directory for locale dependent .dll files
The -l and -d options are mandatory. The .dll file is written in a
subdirectory of the specified directory whose name depends on the locale.
Output file location in Tcl mode:
-l, --locale=LOCALE locale name, either language or language_COUNTRY
-d DIRECTORY base directory of .msg message catalogs
The -l and -d options are mandatory. The .msg file is written in the
specified directory.
Input file syntax:
-P, --properties-input input files are in Java .properties syntax
--stringtable-input input files are in NeXTstep/GNUstep .strings
syntax
Input file interpretation:
-c, --check perform all the checks implied by
--check-format, --check-header, --check-domain
--check-format check language dependent format strings
--check-header verify presence and contents of the header entry
--check-domain check for conflicts between domain directives
and the --output-file option
-C, --check-compatibility check that GNU msgfmt behaves like X/Open msgfmt
--check-accelerators[=CHAR] check presence of keyboard accelerators for
menu items
-f, --use-fuzzy use fuzzy entries in output
Output details:
-a, --alignment=NUMBER align strings to NUMBER bytes (default: 1)
--no-hash binary file will not include the hash table
Informative output:
-h, --help display this help and exit
-V, --version output version information and exit
--statistics print statistics about translations
-v, --verbose increase verbosity level
