.SH NAME
tqm2ts \- generate TQt Linguist translation files from TQt 2.x message files
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B tqm2ts
.RI "[ " options " ] " qm-files
.SH DESCRIPTION
This page documents the
.B TQt Linguist Qm2ts
tool for the TQt GUI toolkit.
.B Qm2ts
converts TQt 2.x message files (.qm files) into source message files
(.ts files).
.PP
The .ts file format is a simple human-readable XML format that can be
used with version control systems if required. It is understood by
.B lupdate,
.B lrelease
and
.B TQt Linguist.
.PP
.B tqm2ts
is provided to ease porting from the old internationalization
tools
.B (tqtfindtr,
.B tqtmergetr
and
.B msg2tqm)
to the new ones. It will not accept TQt message files generated by
.B lrelease,
as
.B lrelease
compresses .qm files by stripping unnecessary information for lookup.
