NAME

6       poreencode  -  Re-encode  all  files of a PO directory to the specified
7       encoding.
8

SYNOPSIS

10       poreencode encoding PO-directory
11
12       Where encoding is the encoding you would like to convert to eg.  UTF-8,
13       and PO-directory is a directory of existing PO files.
14

DESCRIPTION

16       Takes  a  directory  of  existing PO files and converts them to a given
17       encoding.
18

OPERATION

20       poreencode makes use of the Gettext  tool  msgconv(1)  to  perform  its
21       task. It traverses the PO directory and finds all PO file. It uses msg‐
22       conv(1) to convert the PO file from its existing encoding  to  the  new
23       encoding.
24

BUGS

26       Like most Gettext tools they do a little bit more than documented, msg‐
27       conv(1) will decide which strings are in fact fuzzy  and  delete  fuzzy
28       marking  -  not a lot but you do need to diff (this probably related to
29       #, fuzzy entries that are not  placed  in  the  place  Gettext  expects
30       them).
