🌸 posplit(1) — the Translate Toolkit's lil splitting queen 👑

okay bestie, so posplit is part of the Translate Toolkit (we're on version 1.3.0 btw, vintage 💅), and it lives in section 1 of the manual — that's the user-commands section, iykyk. She has ONE job and she eats every time: take your big PO file and ✂️ split it.

✨ NAME ✨

posplit — split a PO file into a translated, fuzzy, and untranslated PO file. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

posplit ./file.po

Where file.po is an existing PO file or PO compendium. (yes bestie, PO compendiums count too, she's flexible like that 💖)

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

So here's the tea 🍓: posplit takes an existing PO file and splits it into three components:

• translated 👑
• untranslated 😭
• fuzzy 🙈

That's it, that's the magic. Three little PO babies from one PO parent.

Why would you even want this? Two iconic reasons:

• for reviewing translations — lowkey so much easier when the good ones aren't tangled up with the unfinished ones
• for extracting good translations from a compendium file — like, pull the slay out of the pile, periodt 💅

💀 BUGS 💀

okay so this is the part where we hold hands 🫶 — there are some relative path bugs, and because of that you literally have to put the ./ before file.po.

not optional, bestie. it's giving "the code said so." ./file.po or nothing. 🚨
