✨ xgettext-tt2 ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to xgettext-tt2 — the little Perl script from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section (1p) that pulls translatable strings out of your Template Toolkit 2 templates. it's giving i18n, it's giving group project, and yes it's literally here to do the boring part for you 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

xgettext-tt2 — extract translatable strings from Template Toolkit 2 templates 🌸

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

xgettext-tt2 [OPTIONS] INPUTFILES
xgettext-tt2 [OPTIONS] --files-from=FILELIST

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. two ways in: hand it a bunch of INPUTFILES, or hand it a FILELIST via --files-from and let it read the list itself 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑
