✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, gather round 💖 this is ts2po — and what she does is convert Qt Linguist (.ts) files to Gettext PO localization files. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly no cap 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ts2po [--version] [-h|--help] [--manpage] [--progress PROGRESS]
[--errorlevel ERRORLEVEL] [-i|--input] INPUT [-x|--exclude EXCLUDE]
[-o|--output] OUTPUT [-S|--timestamp] [-P|--pot] [--duplicates
DUPLICATESTYLE]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, there's a whole page of examples and usage instructions waiting for you at http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/translate-toolkit/en/latest/commands/ts2po.html — go read it, it's giving documentation main character energy 🫶

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --version — show the program's version number and then dip ✌️
  • -h/--help — show this help message and exit, the classic "idk what's happening" move 😭
  • --manpage — output a manpage based on the help (yes, truly inception-coded, a manpage about making manpages 💀)
  • --progress — show progress as one of: dots, none, bar, names, verbose ✨
  • --errorlevel — show errorlevel as one of: none, message, exception, traceback
  • -i/--input — read from INPUT in ts format 🌸
  • -x/--exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths, get them outta here 🙈
  • -o/--output — write to OUTPUT in po, pot formats
  • -S/--timestamp — skip conversion if the output file has a newer timestamp, she said "been there, done that" 💅
  • -P/--pot — output PO Templates (.pot) rather than PO files (.po)
  • --duplicates — what to do with duplicate strings (identical source text): merge, msgctxt (default: 'msgctxt') 👑
lowkey important: peep that --duplicates default — it's 'msgctxt', so if you do nothing, that's the vibe you're getting. no surprises, bestie 💖

and that's the whole page, fr fr 🎀 this was Translate Toolkit 3.19.5 doing her little ts2po(1) moment, periodt ✨ go convert some files, you're gonna slay 🦋💜
