11 Applies a command to all translations of a translation catalog.
|
jpayne@68
|
12 The COMMAND can be any program that reads a translation from standard
|
jpayne@68
|
13 input. It is invoked once for each translation. Its output becomes
|
jpayne@68
|
14 msgexec's output. msgexec's return code is the maximum return code
|
jpayne@68
|
15 across all invocations.
|
jpayne@68
|
16 .PP
|
jpayne@68
|
17 A special builtin command called '0' outputs the translation, followed by a
|
jpayne@68
|
18 null byte. The output of "msgexec 0" is suitable as input for "xargs \fB\-0\fR".
