[Po4a-devel] Introduction, and a polite request for help

Greetings po4a people. My name is Daniel Cabrera, and I'm one of the members of the Fedora Spanish translation team. We've decided to start updating our man pages, and for that, we've found that po4a is the perfect tool. Since we are very few in our team, and since we're more accustomed to use graphical programs, I'm having a couple of troubles that maybe you could help me solve. Our working plan is to first convert all of our outdated database (v. 1.55) into .po files, and then update them to 3.25... if that's the last version. So, my first problem is that when I try to convert a man page into a .po file, the translated strings are placed as msgid strings. I'm using as a source file a man page already in Spanish (accept.2, for this example), and the command I'm running is: $ po4a-gettextize -f man -m accept.2 -M UTF-8 -p accept.2-es-ES.po My second problem is to be able to convert more than a file at once, but that can wait :-) Thanks a lot for your time Regards, Daniel.
