NAME

       Pod::UsageTrans, pod2usage() - print a usage message from embedded pod documentation

SYNOPSIS

         use Pod::UsageTrans
         use Locale::gettext;

         setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,'');
         textdomain('prog');

         my $message_text  = "This text precedes the usage message.";
         my $exit_status   = 2;          ## The exit status to use
         my $verbose_level = 0;          ## The verbose level to use
         my $filehandle    = \*STDERR;   ## The filehandle to write to
         my $textdomain    = 'prog-pod'; ## The gettext domain for the Pod documentation

         pod2usage($message_text);

         pod2usage($exit_status);

         pod2usage( { -message => gettext( $message_text ) ,
                      -exitval => $exit_status  ,
                      -verbose => $verbose_level,
                      -output  => $filehandle,
                      -textdomain => $textdomain } );

         pod2usage(   -msg     => $message_text ,
                      -exitval => $exit_status  ,
                      -verbose => $verbose_level,
                      -output  => $filehandle,
                      -textdomain => $textdomain );

DESCRIPTION

       Pod::UsageTrans works exactly like Pod::Usage but allows you to easily translate your
       messages. It was specifically written to be compatible with the .po files produced by
       po4a(7). If you want to use any other method to produce your .po files you should probably
       take a look at the source of code of this module to see which msgids you will need to use.

       For documentation on calling pod2usage from your program see Pod::Usage. Pod::UsageTrans
       additionally supports a "-textdomain" option where you can specify the gettext domain to
       use. If "-textdomain" isn't set, Pod::UsageTrans will behave exactly like Pod::Usage.

BUGS

       Pod::UsageTrans is currently in the state of a quickly hacked together solution that was
       tested with exactly one use case. Expect bugs in corner cases.

       It specifically doesn't support many of the po4a options like charset conversion between
       the POD input and the msgstr in the .pot file.
