💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

The original page says: See: http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/translate-toolkit/en/latest/commands/prop2po.html for examples and usage instructions. So here's the exact link, bestie — it's giving docs-and-examples energy, and yes, it's useful, iykyk 🦋

💅 OPTIONS 💅

okay now the flags, bestie — every single one is here, no skipping, periodt.

• --version — show program's version number and exit. iconic exit behavior 💖
• -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic “help me help you” moment 🫶
• --manpage — output a manpage based on the help. yes, it can generate the very kind of page you're reading, meta af ✨
• --progress — show progress as: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your vibe check for progress updates 🌈
• --errorlevel — show errorlevel as: none, message, exception, traceback. choose how much drama the errors get 💀
• -i, --input — read from INPUT in po, pot formats. that's the source material, bestie 🎀
• -x, --exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths. not me filtering the guest list 🙈
• -o, --output — write to OUTPUT in lang, properties, strings formats. the glow-up destination 💅
• -t, --template — read from TEMPLATE in lang, properties, strings formats. template bestie said “follow my lead” 👑
• -S, --timestamp — skip conversion if the output file has newer timestamp. lowkey protecting you from unnecessary work ⭐
• --personality — override the input file format: java, java-utf8, java-utf16, xwiki, flex, mozilla, gaia, gwt, skype, strings, strings-utf8, joomla (for .properties files, default: java). so many personalities, all valid, fr fr 🧚
• --encoding — override the encoding set by the personality. when the personality's encoding isn't the moment 💜
• --threshold — only convert files where the translation completion is above PERCENT. setting the bar, literally 📏
• --fuzzy — use translations marked fuzzy. bring the fuzzy ones to the party 🍓
• --nofuzzy — don't use translations marked fuzzy (default). the default is no fuzzy, bestie 🫶
• --removeuntranslated — remove untranslated strings from output. clean it up, leave no untranslated crumbs 🌸

lowkey important: --nofuzzy is the default, so if you want fuzzy translations in the mix, you gotta say --fuzzy out loud, fr fr.

Translate Toolkit 3.12.1 is the version energy on the footer, bestie — and no date was listed, so we're not making one up. signed, sealed, slayed 🫶💅🎀
