NAME
poreencode - Reencode all files of a PO directory to the specified encoding.
SYNOPSIS
poreencode encoding PO-directory Where encoding is the encoding you would like to convert to eg. UTF-8, and PO-directory is a directory of existing PO files.
DESCRIPTION
Takes a directory of existing PO files and converts them to a given encoding.
OPERATION
poreencode makes use of the Gettext tool msgconv(1) to perform its task. It traverses the PO directory and finds all PO file. It uses msg- conv(1) to convert the PO file from its existing encoding to the new encoding.
BUGS
Like most Gettext tools they do a little bit more than documented, msgconv(1) will decide which strings are in fact fuzzy and delete fuzzy marking - not a lot but you do need to diff (this probably related to #, fuzzy entries that are not placed in the place Gettext expects them).
