# Added checks that _() only contains string literals, and
# command line args are resolved to module lists, i.e. you
# can now pass a filename, a module or package name, or a
# directory (including globbing chars, important for Win32).
# Made docstring fit in 80 chars wide displays using pydoc.
__doc__ = _("""pygettext -- Python equivalent of xgettext(1)
Many systems (Solaris, Linux, Gnu) provide extensive tools that ease the
internationalization of C programs. Most of these tools are independent of
the programming language and can be used from within Python programs.
Martin von Loewis' work[1] helps considerably in this regard.
There's one problem though; xgettext is the program that scans source code
looking for message strings, but it groks only C (or C++). Python
introduces a few wrinkles, such as dual quoting characters, triple quoted
strings, and raw strings. xgettext understands none of this.
Enter pygettext, which uses Python's standard tokenize module to scan
Python source code, generating .pot files identical to what GNU xgettext[2]
generates for C and C++ code. From there, the standard GNU tools can be
A word about marking Python strings as candidates for translation. GNU
xgettext recognizes the following keywords: gettext, dgettext, dcgettext,
and gettext_noop. But those can be a lot of text to include all over your
code. C and C++ have a trick: they use the C preprocessor. Most
internationalized C source includes a #define for gettext() to _() so that
what has to be written in the source is much less. Thus these are both
gettext("Translatable String")
Python of course has no preprocessor so this doesn't work so well. Thus,
pygettext searches only for _() by default, but see the -k/--keyword flag
below for how to augment this.

NOTE: pygettext attempts to be option and feature compatible with GNU
xgettext where ever possible. However some options are still missing or are
not fully implemented. Also, xgettext's use of command line switches with
option arguments is broken, and in these cases, pygettext just defines
Usage: pygettext [options] inputfile ...
Rename the default output file from messages.pot to name.pot.
Replace non-ASCII characters with octal escape sequences.
Extract module, class, method, and function docstrings. These do
not need to be wrapped in _() markers, and in fact cannot be for
Python to consider them docstrings. (See also the -X option).
Print this help message and exit.
Keywords to look for in addition to the default set, which are:
You can have multiple -k flags on the command line.
Disable the default set of keywords (see above). Any keywords
explicitly added with the -k/--keyword option are still recognized.
Do not write filename/lineno location comments.
Write filename/lineno location comments indicating where each
extracted string is found in the source. These lines appear before
each msgid. The style of comments is controlled by the -S/--style
option. This is the default.
Rename the default output file from messages.pot to filename. If
filename is `-' then the output is sent to standard out.
Output files will be placed in directory dir.
Specify which style to use for location comments. Two styles are
Solaris # File: filename, line: line-number
The style name is case insensitive. GNU style is the default.
Print the names of the files being processed.
Print the version of pygettext and exit.
Set width of output to columns.
Specify a file that contains a list of strings that are not be
extracted from the input files. Each string to be excluded must
appear on a line by itself in the file.
Specify a file that contains a list of files (one per line) that
should not have their docstrings extracted. This is only useful in
conjunction with the -D option above.
If `inputfile' is -, standard input is read.
