6 # This is a Makefile to generate the PO files for automated
7 # translation. If you get through the trouble of creating PO file for
8 # your language, you will save a lot of hassles with editing plain html
9 # and repeated text, which also implies potential mistakes.
11 # Please read the manual on the page:
12 # http://dev.man-online.org/man7/po4a/

50 # NOTE: You need to make sure that your translated document is formaly
51 # correct xhtml (there might be accidental mistakes).
52 # Validate your document to find errors (e.g. https://validator.w3.org)
54 # IMPORTANT: when you generate the PO files from the existing
55 # translation, the original files in the version *corresponding* to
56 # the translation have to be provided as a command line argument (with
59 # for that specify the directory where the original files are placed
61 # and the list of files that were translated within the corresponding
65 # The generation of the PO file is likely to go wrong, because of the
66 # mistakes which were introduced by the direct translation of the html
67 # files. In this case the po4a gives quite good error message with a
68 # reference in which file and line number to look at to find the
69 # mistake. Go to that file and try to correct the errors and then
70 # repeat the procedure.
72 # Don't give up. Translating PO files is nicer.
