NAME

       jgmenu-i18n - support translation of jgmenu flavoured CSV menu data

SYNOPSIS

       jgmenu_run i18n <translation-file>

       jgmenu_run i18n --init [<translation-file>]

DESCRIPTION

       jgmenu_run i18n reads jgmenu flavoured CSV menu data from stdin and either translates it, or creates a po
       style translation file

       The  <translation-file> argument can be a file or directory.  If it is the latter, translation files will
       be searched for in this directory based on the environment variable $LANG, which will be assumed to be in
       the format ll_CC.UTF8 where ll is an ISO 639 two-letter language code and CC is an  ISO  3166  two-letter
       country code.  Files named ll_CC and ll will be used in said order.

OPTIONS

       --init Create a template po style translation file with blank msgid entries

EXAMPLES

   Create translation file template for manual translation
       Modules  jgmenu-apps(1)  and  jgmenu-ob(1)  have built-in i18n support.  In order to use this features, a
       translation file is required.  Here follow examples of how a translation file can be created:

       Example 1.

              jgmenu_run ob | jgmenu_run i18n --init >sv

       Example 2.

              jgmenu_run i18n --init <prepend.csv >sv

       The result of the above commands would be a skeleton translation file (sv in this  case)  containing  en‐
       tries like this:

              msgid "Web Browser"
              msgstr ""

       Manually translate the empty msgstr fields.

   Use translation file
       If  using  modules  jgmenu-apps(1)  or jgmenu-ob(1), just set csv_i18n in jgmenurc to directly point to a
       translation-file or a directory containing translation files.

       In special circumstances, you may wish to include i18n in command plumbing.  Here follow  an  example  of
       how this could be constructed:

              <csv-generating-command> \
                  | jgmenu_run i18n <translation-file> \
                  | jgmenu --vsimple
