<tool name="msgmerge">
<summary>
<para>
This scons tool is a part of scons &t-link-gettext; toolset. It provides
scons interface to <command>msgmerge(1)</command> command, which merges two
Uniform style <filename>.po</filename> files together.

<builder name="POUpdate">
<summary>
<para>
The builder belongs to &t-link-msgmerge; tool. The builder updates
<literal>PO</literal> files with <command>msgmerge(1)</command>, or initializes
missing <literal>PO</literal> files as described in documentation of
&t-link-msginit; tool and &b-link-POInit; builder (see also
&cv-link-POAUTOINIT;). Note, that &b-POUpdate; <emphasis>does not add its
targets to <literal>po-create</literal> alias</emphasis> as &b-link-POInit;
does.
</para>

<para>
Target nodes defined through &b-POUpdate; are not built by default
(they're <literal>Ignore</literal>d from <literal>'.'</literal> node). Instead,
they are added automatically to special <literal>Alias</literal> 
(<literal>'po-update'</literal> by default). The alias name may be changed
through the &cv-link-POUPDATE_ALIAS; construction variable.  You can easily 
update <literal>PO</literal> files in your project by <command>scons
po-update</command>.
</para>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 1.</emphasis>
Update <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> from
<filename>messages.pot</filename> template (see also &cv-link-POTDOMAIN;),
assuming that the later one exists or there is rule to build it (see
&b-link-POTUpdate;):
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env.POUpdate(['en','pl']) # messages.pot --&gt; [en.po, pl.po]
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 2.</emphasis>
Update <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> from
<filename>foo.pot</filename> template:
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env.POUpdate(['en', 'pl'], ['foo']) # foo.pot --&gt;  [en.po, pl.pl]
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 3.</emphasis>
Update <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> from
<filename>foo.pot</filename> (another version):
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env.POUpdate(['en', 'pl'], POTDOMAIN='foo') # foo.pot -- &gt; [en.po, pl.pl]
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 4.</emphasis>
Update files for languages defined in <filename>LINGUAS</filename> file. The
files are updated from <filename>messages.pot</filename> template:
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env.POUpdate(LINGUAS_FILE = 1) # needs 'LINGUAS' file
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 5.</emphasis>
Same as above, but update from <filename>foo.pot</filename> template:
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env.POUpdate(LINGUAS_FILE = 1, source = ['foo'])
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 6.</emphasis>
Update <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> plus files for
languages defined in <filename>LINGUAS</filename> file. The files are updated
from <filename>messages.pot</filename> template:
</para>
<example_commands>
  # produce 'en.po', 'pl.po' + files defined in 'LINGUAS':
  env.POUpdate(['en', 'pl' ], LINGUAS_FILE = 1) 
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 7.</emphasis>
Use &cv-link-POAUTOINIT; to automatically initialize <literal>PO</literal> file
if it doesn't exist:
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env.POUpdate(LINGUAS_FILE = 1, POAUTOINIT = 1)
</example_commands>

<para>
<emphasis>Example 8.</emphasis>
Update <literal>PO</literal> files for languages defined in
<filename>LINGUAS</filename> file. The files are updated from
<filename>foo.pot</filename> template. All necessary settings are
pre-configured via environment.
</para>
<example_commands>
  # ...
  env['POAUTOINIT'] = 1
  env['LINGUAS_FILE'] = 1
  env['POTDOMAIN'] = 'foo'
  env.POUpdate()
</example_commands>
