Locale::Po4a::Text(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     Locale::Po4a::Text(3)

NAME

       Locale::Po4a::Text - convert text documents from/to PO files

DESCRIPTION

       The po4a (PO for anything) project goal is to ease translations (and more interestingly, the maintenance of translations) using gettext
       tools on areas where they were not expected like documentation.

       Locale::Po4a::Text is a module to help the translation of text documents into other [human] languages.

       Paragraphs are split on empty lines (or lines containing only spaces or tabulations).

       If a paragraph contains a line starting by a space (or tabulation), this paragraph won't be rewrapped.

OPTIONS ACCEPTED BY THIS MODULE

       These are this module's particular options:

       nobullets
	   Deactivate detection of bullets.

	   By default, when a bullet is detected, the bullet paragraph is not considered as a verbatim paragraph (with the no-wrap flag in the PO
	   file), but the module rewraps this paragraph in the generated PO file and in the translation.

       tabs=mode
	   Specify how tabulations shall be handled. The mode can be any of:

	   split
	       Lines with tabulations introduce breaks in the current paragraph.

	   verbatim
	       Paragraph containing tabulations will not be re-wrapped.

	   By default, tabulations are considered as spaces.

       breaks=regex
	   A regular expression matching lines which introduce breaks.	The regular expression will be anchored so that the whole line must match.

       debianchangelog
	   Handle the header and footer of released versions, which only contain non translatable informations.

       fortunes
	   Handle the fortunes format, which separate fortunes with a line which consists in '%' or '%%', and use '%%' as the beginning of a
	   comment.

       markdown
	   Handle some special markup in Markdown-formatted texts.

       asciidoc
	   Handle documents in the AsciiDoc format.

       control[=taglist]
	   Handle control files.  A comma-separated list of tags to be translated can be provided.

STATUS OF THIS MODULE

       Tested successfully on simple text files and NEWS.Debian files.
