File: gettext.info, Node: autopoint Invocation, Prev: Translations under Version Control, Up: Version Control Issues 13.6.4 Invoking the 'autopoint' Program --------------------------------------- autopoint [OPTION]... The 'autopoint' program copies standard gettext infrastructure files into a source package. It extracts from a macro call of the form 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(VERSION)', found in the package's 'configure.in' or 'configure.ac' file, the gettext version used by the package, and copies the infrastructure files belonging to this version into the package. To extract the latest available infrastructure which satisfies a version requirement, then you can use the form 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_REQUIRE_VERSION(VERSION)' instead. For example, if gettext 0.21 is installed on your system and '0.19.1' is requested, then the infrastructure files of version 0.21 will be copied into a source package. 13.6.4.1 Options ................ '-f' '--force' Force overwriting of files that already exist. '-n' '--dry-run' Print modifications but don't perform them. All file copying actions that 'autopoint' would normally execute are inhibited and instead only listed on standard output. 13.6.4.2 Informative output ........................... '--help' Display this help and exit. '--version' Output version information and exit. 'autopoint' supports the GNU 'gettext' versions from 0.10.35 to the current one, 0.21. In order to apply 'autopoint' to a package using a 'gettext' version newer than 0.21, you need to install this same version of GNU 'gettext' at least. In packages using GNU 'automake', an invocation of 'autopoint' should be followed by invocations of 'aclocal' and then 'autoconf' and 'autoheader'. The reason is that 'autopoint' installs some autoconf macro files, which are used by 'aclocal' to create 'aclocal.m4', and the latter is used by 'autoconf' to create the package's 'configure' script and by 'autoheader' to create the package's 'config.h.in' include file template. The name 'autopoint' is an abbreviation of 'auto-po-intl-m4'; in earlier versions, the tool copied or updated mostly files in the 'po', 'intl', 'm4' directories.
