💖 poclean(1) — the manual page, but make it bestie-coded 💖

okay so welcome to poclean, a lil tool from the Translate Toolkit 3.19.5 era. she's a glam little cleaner, and I'm about to tell you everything about her. no gatekeeping here 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

poclean — bestie, she takes an unclean file (the kind that comes out of Trados or Wordfast) and produces a clean file from it by stripping out the tw4win indicators. literally that's her whole job and she eats every time 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

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

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Real talk, because this is important and I don't want you getting the wrong idea:

This does NOT convert an RTF file to PO/XLIFF. nope, not that girl. What she actually does is take a text version of the RTF and produce the target file with only the target text in. that's the vibe. that's the assignment. ✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --version — show the program's version number and then dip. bye 👋
  • -h/--help — show this help message and exit. the classic "wait how do I use this" button 🫶
  • --manpage — output a manpage based on the help. meta, honestly. iconic.
  • --progress — show progress as one of: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your fav little loading-vibe 🍓
  • --errorlevel — show errorlevel as one of: none, message, exception, traceback. i.e. how much drama do you want when something goes wrong 💀
  • -i/--input — read from INPUT in po, pot, xlf, xliff formats. hand her the goods 💖
  • -x/--exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths. not everything deserves an invite to the party 🙈
  • -o/--output — write to OUTPUT in po, pot, xlf, xliff formats. where the clean file gets to live ✨
  • -S/--timestamp — skip conversion if the output file has a newer timestamp. she's not gonna do work that's already been done, main character energy 👑
ngl, that's genuinely every flag. no secret hidden options, no cap. 👑
