.SH NAME
pylupdate \- update Qt Linguist translation files from Python sources
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pylupdate
.RI "[ " options " ] " project-file...
.SH DESCRIPTION
This page documents the
.B Qt Linguist Update
tool for the Qt GUI toolkit, for Python source files.
.B PyLupdate
reads a qmake project file (.pro file), finds the translatable
strings in the specified source, header and interface files, and
updates the translation files (.ts files) specified in it. The
translation files are given to the translator who uses
.B Qt Linguist
to read the files and insert the translations.
.PP
The .ts file format is a simple human-readable XML format that can be
used with version control systems if required.
.PP
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.I "-help"
Display the usage and exit.
.TP
.I "-noobsolete"
Drop all obsolete strings.
.TP
.I "-verbose"

.TP
.I "-version"
Display the version of
