NAME

       poreencode - Re-encode 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 msgconv(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).
