💅 idml2po(1) — the IDML-to-PO bestie manual 💅

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for idml2po(1), and it’s literally here to help you convert IDML files into PO localization files. no cap, that’s the whole main character job. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

idml2po — Convert IDML files to PO localization files. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

idml2po [--version] [-h|--help] [--manpage] [--progress PROGRESS]
[--errorlevel ERRORLEVEL] [-i|--input] INPUT [-x|--exclude EXCLUDE]
[-o|--output] OUTPUT [-S|--timestamp]

Lowkey just copy that shape exactly, okay? The flags are doing their thing. 💅

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• --version — show the program’s version number and exit. bye bestie, version info first. 👑
• -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic “help me help you” move. 🫶
• --manpage — output a manpage based on the help. yes, a manpage made from the help text, iconic. 🎀
• --progress — show progress as: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your vibe. 🌈
• --errorlevel — show errorlevel as: none, message, exception, traceback. choose how much error tea you can handle. 😭
• -i, --input — read from INPUT in idml format. that’s the source file, bestie. 🦋
• -x, --exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths. not invited to the conversion party. 💀
• -o, --output — write to OUTPUT in po, pot formats. this is where the converted localization files go. 💖
• -S, --timestamp — skip conversion if the output file has newer timestamp. no need to redo it if the output is already fresher, periodt. ⭐

🫶 cute sign-off: this page is from the Translate Toolkit 3.12.1 era, and the original footer doesn’t list a date, so I’m not inventing one — no cap. bye bestie, go convert those IDML files. 💜
