NAME

       Locale::Msgfmt - Compile .po files to .mo files

SYNOPSIS

       This module does the same thing as msgfmt from GNU gettext-tools, except this is pure Perl. The interface is best explained through
       examples:

	 use Locale::Msgfmt;

	 # Compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo
	 msgfmt({in => "po/fr.po", out => "po/fr.mo"});

	 # Compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo and include fuzzy translations
	 msgfmt({in => "po/fr.po", out => "po/fr.mo", fuzzy => 1});

	 # Compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
	 # files to the po directory
	 msgfmt("po/");

	 # Compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
	 # files to the po directory, and include fuzzy translations
	 msgfmt({in => "po/", fuzzy => 1});

	 # Compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
	 # files to the output directory, creating the output directory if
	 # it doesn't already exist
	 msgfmt({in => "po/", out => "output/"});

	 # Compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
	 # files to the output directory, and include fuzzy translations
	 msgfmt({in => "po/", out => "output/", fuzzy => 1});

	 # Compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo
	 msgfmt("po/fr.po");

	 # Compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo and include fuzzy translations
	 msgfmt({in => "po/fr.po", fuzzy => 1});
