.TH ITSTOOL "1" "May 2011" "itstool @VERSION@"
.SH NAME
itstool \- convert between XML and PO using ITS
.SH SYNOPSIS
itstool [OPTIONS] [XMLFILES]
.br
itstool \fB\-m\fR <MOFILE> [OPTIONS] [XMLFILES]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.BR itstool
extracts messages from XML files and outputs PO template files, then merges
translations from MO files to create translated XML files. It determines what
to translate and how to chunk it into messages using the W3C Internationalization
Tag Set (ITS).
To extract messages from XML files \fBFILES\fR and output them to \fBOUT.pot\fR:
\fBitstool -o OUT.pot FILES\fR
After merging with existing translations or translating strings, generate an
MO file with \fBmsgfmt(1)\fR, then output translated files to the directory
\fBDIR\fR:
\fBitstool -m OUT.mo -o DIR FILES\fR
ITS definitions are loaded from the built-in rules, rules embedded in the source
XML files, files passed with the \fB-i\fR option, and ITS attributes in the source
XML files. Later definitions take precedence.
