NAME

       maketext - translate and make messages

SYNOPSIS

	 maketext [OPTION] [--domain=TEXTDOMAIN] MSGKEY [PARAM...]
	 maketext [OPTION] -s MSGID [PARAM...]

DESCRIPTION

       The "maketext" script translates a natural language message into the user's language, by looking up the translation in a message MO file,
       and process the plural transformation with Maketext.

       The "maketext" script is a command-line interface to Locale::Maketext::Gettext(3) (and Locale::Maketext(3)).  It can be used in shell
       scripts, etc, to translate, maketext and return the result.  By this way, it enables Maketext to be integrated into other programming
       languages/systems, like bash/csh, python, PHP, C, etc.  It works like the command-line program gettext.

       For example:

	 % maketext -s "[*,_1,virus was,viruses were] found in [*,_2,file,files]." 0 1
	 0 viruses were found in 1 file.
	 % maketext -s "[*,_1,virus was,viruses were] found in [*,_2,file,files]." 1 3
	 1 virus was found in 3 files.
	 %

OPTIONS

       -d,--domain=TEXTDOMAIN
	   Retrieve translated messages from TEXTDOMAIN.

       -s  Adds a new line to the end of the output so that it behaves like the `echo' or the `gettext' command.

       -h,--help
	   Display the help messages.

       -V,--version
	   Display version information and exit.

       MSGKEY
	   The original text used to look up translated text.

       PARAM...
	   Parameters to Maketext for the plural and other text functions.

ENVIRONMENT

       TEXTDOMAIN
	   TEXTDOMAIN is used to determine the text domain when the -d parameter is not given.

       TEXTDOMAINDIR
	   TEXTDOMAINDIR is used to search the message catelog/MO file if it does not reside in the system locale directories.

NOTES

       Maketext language function override, like "quant" or "numerate", is not available here.	Suggestions are welcome.

       The current system locale directory search order is: /usr/share/locale, /usr/lib/locale, /usr/local/share/locale, /usr/local/lib/locale.
       Suggestions are welcome.

NAME

       gettext - translate message

SYNOPSIS

       gettext [OPTION] [[TEXTDOMAIN] MSGID]
       gettext [OPTION] -s [MSGID]...

DESCRIPTION

       The gettext program translates a natural language message into the user's language, by looking up the translation in a message catalog.

       Display native language translation of a textual message.

       -d, --domain=TEXTDOMAIN
	      retrieve translated messages from TEXTDOMAIN

       -e     enable expansion of some escape sequences

       -E     (ignored for compatibility)

       -h, --help
	      display this help and exit

       -n     suppress trailing newline

       -V, --version
	      display version information and exit

       [TEXTDOMAIN] MSGID
	      retrieve translated message corresponding to MSGID from TEXTDOMAIN

       If the TEXTDOMAIN parameter is not given, the domain is determined from the environment variable TEXTDOMAIN.  If the message catalog is not
       found in the regular directory, another location can be specified with the environment variable	TEXTDOMAINDIR.	 When  used  with  the	-s
       option  the program behaves like the `echo' command.  But it does not simply copy its arguments to stdout.  Instead those messages found in
       the selected catalog are translated.  Standard search directory: /usr/share/locale
