+.SH NAME
+lupdate \- update Qt Linguist translation files
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B lupdate
+.RI "[ " options " ] " project-file
+.br
+.B lupdate
+.RI "[ " options " ] " source-files " -ts " ts-files
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This page documents the
+.B Qt Linguist Update
+tool for the Qt GUI toolkit.
+.B Lupdate
+reads a qmake/tmake 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"
+Explain what is being done.
+.TP
+.I "-version"
+Display the version of
+.B lupdate
+and exit.
+.SH USAGE
+Here is an example .pro file that can be given to
+.B lupdate:
+.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 \\

+.PP
+When running
+.B lupdate
+on this project file, the translatable strings in all the files
+listed in the HEADERS, SOURCES and FORMS entries will be put in
+the translation files listed in the TRANSLATIONS entry. Previous
+translations will be reused as far as possible, and translated
+strings that have vanished from the source files are marked obsolete.
+.PP
+.B Lupdate
+can also be invoked with a list of C++ source files, .ui files
+and .ts files:
+.PP
+.in +4
+.nf
+lupdate *.cpp *.h *.ui -ts gnomovision_dk.ts
