Q&A


Q: Why? A:* There should be no need for GNOME to edit .po files.


Some folks prefer terminal to GUI.


No, plugin for vi(m) isn't enough. Q: Why C? A: Because <Go/Rust/whatever soydev language of the moment> sucks. Q: Why is poe saying there are <N+1> messages in my file when other editors say there are <N> messages? A: Because poe takes into account (and allows editing of) the first, special msgid. Q: This doesn't do X! A: I might consider adding a feature if I have time, but already poe has all the major ones I planned. It is meant to be a simple .po editing program. Q: Is this suckless? A: Definitely not. Any TUI is not suckless. gettext is not suckless, and thus .po files are also not suckless. Despite that, some suggestions for a suckless approach to editing .po files are: vi, ed. Still, termbox, used by poe, is less bloated than ncurses. ## Prerequisites

C compiler - defaults in config.mk ## Install

$ git clone https://git.sr.ht/~strahinja/poe
$ cd poe
$ su
# make install

Persistent build configuration file

The file config.mk will be sourced when building targets which also accept configuration through environment variables. For example, CPPFLAGS and PREFIX are specified in config.mk.

OpenBSD


Before running make(1), comment the CPPFLAGS definition in config.mk above the line with the “OpenBSD” comment and uncomment the one below it:

#CPPFLAGS	= -D_DEFAULT_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L
#		  -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=700
# OpenBSD
CPPFLAGS	= -D_DEFAULT_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L
		  -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=700 -D_BSD_SOURCE


Also, do the same for MANPREFIX:

#MANPREFIX	= $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/share/man
# OpenBSD
MANPREFIX	= $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/man


Install (Arch)


$ <aur_helper> -S poe
