✨ TSV2TMX ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because this little script is about to turn your boring spreadsheets into ✨translation memories✨ and honestly? it's giving main character energy 💅

the manual name is tsv2tmx and it lives in the 1p section (user contributed perl documentation, iykyk). it makes a TMX out of a TSV file. no cap.

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 0.39 — yeah she's been around a minute and she still slays 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

tsv2tmx [options] file.tsv ...

 Options:
   --help            brief help message
   --man             full documentation
   --verbose | -v    activated verbose mode
   --sl=EN --tl=PT   describe source and target language names
   --header          treat first line as a heading
   --columns=1,2     specify which columns to extract
   --fs='::'         set field separator. (separated by '::')

so like. you hand her one or more file.tsv files, you sprinkle in some options, and she does the thing. periodt. 💖

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

this is literally here to help you build translation memories out of TSV files — the kind you can just casually export from spreadsheets or any other application that feels like it. it's so easy it's lowkey iconic ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • --help — prints a short lil help message and then dips. that's it, that's the whole job 💅
  • --man — prints the actual manual page and exits. hi, that's this one, you're reading it right now 🌈
  • --verbose, -v — turns on verbose mode. she starts telling you what's going on, and we love a chatty queen 🗣️✨
  • --sl, --tl — use these to name your source language and your target language. like, actually name them. no guessing.
  • --header — so by default this switch is on, and what that means is the TSV file has a first line with a heading up top. and here's the cute part: if you never specified source or target language names, she'll use that first line to guess them 👀 smart girl behavior.
  • --columns=1,2 — tells her which columns to pull out. has to be a pair of integers separated by a comma. heads up bestie: column indexes start at 0, not 1. default is "0,1". so like, zero-indexed, we're programmers, we know 🫠
also spotted in the synopsis and not to be forgotten: --fs='::' — sets the field separator. (separated by '::')
