<para>
This scons tool is a part of scons &t-link-gettext; toolset. It provides
scons interface to <command>msginit(1)</command> program, which creates new
<literal>PO</literal> file, initializing the meta information with values from
user's environment (or options).

<summary>
<para>
This builder belongs to &t-link-msginit; tool. The builder initializes missing
<literal>PO</literal> file(s) if &cv-link-POAUTOINIT; is set. If
&cv-link-POAUTOINIT; is not set (default), &b-POInit; prints instruction for
user (that is supposed to be a translator), telling how the
<literal>PO</literal> file should be initialized. In normal projects
<emphasis>you should not use &b-POInit; and use &b-link-POUpdate;
instead</emphasis>. &b-link-POUpdate; chooses intelligently between
<command>msgmerge(1)</command> and <command>msginit(1)</command>. &b-POInit;
always uses <command>msginit(1)</command> and should be regarded as builder for
special purposes or for temporary use (e.g. for quick, one time initialization
of a bunch of <literal>PO</literal> files) or for tests.
</para>
<para>
Target nodes defined through &b-POInit; are not built by default (they're
<literal>Ignore</literal>d from <literal>'.'</literal> node) but are added to
special <literal>Alias</literal> (<literal>'po-create'</literal> by default).
The alias name may be changed through the &cv-link-POCREATE_ALIAS;
construction variable. All <literal>PO</literal> files defined through
&b-POInit; may be easily initialized by <command>scons po-create</command>.
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>Example 1</emphasis>.
Initialize <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> from
<filename>messages.pot</filename>:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env.POInit(['en', 'pl']) # messages.pot --&gt; [en.po, pl.po]
</example_commands>
<para>
<emphasis>Example 2</emphasis>.
Initialize <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> from
<filename>foo.pot</filename>:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env.POInit(['en', 'pl'], ['foo']) # foo.pot --&gt; [en.po, pl.po]
</example_commands>
<para>
<emphasis>Example 3</emphasis>.
Initialize <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.po</filename> from
<filename>foo.pot</filename> but using &cv-link-POTDOMAIN; construction
variable:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env.POInit(['en', 'pl'], POTDOMAIN='foo') # foo.pot --&gt; [en.po, pl.po]
</example_commands>
<para>
<emphasis>Example 4</emphasis>.
Initialize <literal>PO</literal> files for languages defined in
<filename>LINGUAS</filename> file. The files will be initialized from template
<filename>messages.pot</filename>:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env.POInit(LINGUAS_FILE = 1) # needs 'LINGUAS' file
</example_commands>
<para>
<emphasis>Example 5</emphasis>.
Initialize <filename>en.po</filename> and <filename>pl.pl</filename>
<literal>PO</literal> files plus files for languages defined in
<filename>LINGUAS</filename> file. The files will be initialized from template
<filename>messages.pot</filename>:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env.POInit(['en', 'pl'], LINGUAS_FILE = 1)
</example_commands>
<para>
<emphasis>Example 6</emphasis>.
You may preconfigure your environment first, and then initialize
<literal>PO</literal> files:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env['POAUTOINIT'] = 1
env['LINGUAS_FILE'] = 1
env['POTDOMAIN'] = 'foo'
env.POInit()
</example_commands>
<para>
which has same efect as:
</para>
<example_commands>
# ...
env.POInit(POAUTOINIT = 1, LINGUAS_FILE = 1, POTDOMAIN = 'foo')
</example_commands>
