NAME

       ecppl - language-extractor for ecpp

SYNOPSIS

       ecppl [-I dir] [-ln] [-o output-filename] ecpp-filename

DESCRIPTION

       Ecppl  is  the  language-extractor  for ecpp.  Ecpp - the template-language used with tntnet - supports internationalized applications.	In
       ecpp-templates a tag <i18n> changes the meaning of curly braces.  A phrase, which is enclosed in curly braces, can be translated.  At  run-
       time the phrase is looked up in a language-library.  This mode can be quit with the tag </i18n>.  Phrases must not have newlines or tabs.

       Every  phrase,  which  is  marked as translatable, is extracted with ecppl and written to standard output or to a specified output-filename
       line by line.

OPTIONS

       -I dir Search include-files in directory.  This option can be passed multiple times.  All specified directories are searched  in  turn  for
	      include-files.

       -l     Extract language-phrases (the default)

       -n     Extract non-language-phrases

       -o filename
	      Specify output filename
