NAME
msgexec - process translations of message catalog
SYNOPSIS
msgexec
[_O_P_T_I_O_N] _C_O_M_M_A_N_D [_C_O_M_M_A_N_D_-_O_P_T_I_O_N]
DESCRIPTION
Applies a command to all translations of a translation catalog.
The COMMAND can be any program that reads a translation from standard
input. It is invoked once for each translation. Its output becomes
msgexec's output. msgexec's return code is the maximum return code
across all invocations.
A special builtin command called '0' outputs the translation, followed by a
null byte. The output of "msgexec 0" is suitable as input for "xargs --00".
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
