# Interactive mode added for certain words by Peter Oliver, 2002-08-25.
+# Some documentation (Philip Withnall, 2011-07-30):
+#
+# Assume the PO file you want to translate is called âinput.poâ. It can be
+# empty (i.e. freshly generated by `intltool-update -p`) or can contain
+# existing translations. They won't be overwritten by the script.
+#
+# Run `en_GB.pl input.po > output.po`.
+#
+# The script will ask you about any ambiguous words (such as the en_US
+# âcellâ, which can of course be translated to âmobileâ or can stay
+# unchanged). The correctly-formed output will be in output.po. You can
+# then check through this manually, and perhaps diff it against input.po
+# as a sanity check.
+#
+# The script can also be run in a âcheckingâ mode: `en_GB.pl --check
+# input.po > differences`.
+#
+# This will automatically translate input.po as above, but will discard
+# all the output. Instead, it will output a message to the differences
+# file if the automatic translation of a message doesn't match the manual
+# translation. This can be used both to find problems in manual
+# translations, missing automatic translation rules and to find
+# corrections to the original messages which have been made in manual
+# translations but not upstreamed.
