.B lrelease
.RI "[ " options " ] " ts-files " [ -qm " qm-file " ]"
.SH DESCRIPTION
This page documents the
.B TQt Linguist Release
tool for the TQt GUI toolkit.
.B Lrelease
reads a qmake/tmake project file (.pro file) and converts the
translation files (.ts files) specified in it into TQt message files
(.qm files) used by the application to translate.
.PP
The .qm file format is a compact binary format that provides
extremely fast lookups for translations and that is used by Qt.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.I "-help"
Display the usage and exit.
.TP
.I "-nocompress"
Do not compress the .qm files.
.TP
.I "-verbose"
Explain what is being done.
.TP
.I "-version"
Display the version of
.B lrelease
and exit.
.SH USAGE
Here is an example .pro file that can be given to
.B lrelease:
.PP
.in +4
.nf
HEADERS = funnydialog.h \\
wackywidget.h
SOURCES = funnydialog.cpp \\
main.cpp \\
wackywidget.cpp
FORMS = fancybox.ui
TRANSLATIONS = gnomovision_dk.ts \\
gnomovision_fi.ts \\
gnomovision_no.ts \\
gnomovision_se.ts
.fi
.in -4
.PP
When running
.B lrelease
on this project file, the TQt message files gnomovision_dk.qm,
gnomovision_fi.qm, gnomovision_no.qm and gnomovision_se.qm will be
generated from gnomovision_dk.ts, gnomovision_fi.ts,
gnomovision_no.ts and gnomovision_se.ts, respectively.
