|

|
|
The `xopo` utility filters ".pot" files generated by the
|
|
|
|
:manpage:`xgettext(1)` utility to remove formatting information
|
|
|
|
suitable for use with the "{G:}" modifier. This means that when the
|
|
|
|
developer changes the formatting portion of the field definitions, or
|
|
|
|
the fields modifiers, the string passed to :manpage:`gettext(3)` is
|
|
|
|
unchanged, avoiding the expense of updating any existing translation
|
|
|
|
files (".po" files).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The syntax for the xopo command is one of two forms; it can be used as
|
|
|
|
a filter for processing a .po or .pot file, rewriting the "*msgid*"
|
|
|
|
strings with a simplified message string. In this mode, the input is
|
|
|
|
either standard input or a file given by the "-f" option, and the
|
|
|
|
output is either standard output or a file given by the "-o" option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the second mode, a simple message given using the "-s" option on
|
|
|
|
the command, and the simplified version of that message is printed on
|
|
|
|
stdout:

EXAMPLE:
|
|
|
|
% xopo -s "There are {:count/%u} {:event/%.6s} events\n"
|
|
|
|
There are {:count} {:event} events\n
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
% xgettext --default-domain=foo --no-wrap \
|
|
|
|
--add-comments --keyword=xo_emit --keyword=xo_emit_h \
|
|
|
|
--keyword=xo_emit_warn -C -E -n --foreign-user \
|
|
|
|
-o foo.pot.raw foo.c
|
|
|
|
% xopo -f foo.pot.raw -o foo.pot
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use of the `--no-wrap` option for `xgettext` is required to
|
|
|
|
ensure that incoming msgid strings are not wrapped across multiple
|
|
|
|
lines.
