NAME¶

Locale::Po4a::Dia - convert uncompressed Dia diagrams from/to PO files

DESCRIPTION¶

The po4a (PO for anything) project goal is to ease translations (and more interestingly, the maintenance of translations) using gettext tools on areas where they were not expected like documentation.

Locale::Po4a::Dia is a module to help the translation of diagrams in the uncompressed Dia format into other [human] languages.

You can get Dia (the graphical editor for these diagrams) from:
http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/

TRANSLATING WITH PO4A::DIA¶

This module only translates uncompressed Dia diagrams. You can save your uncompressed diagrams with Dia itself, unchecking the "Compress diagram files" at the "Save Diagram" dialog.

Another way is to uncompress the dia files from command line with:
gunzip < original.dia > uncompressed.dia

STATUS OF THIS MODULE¶

This module is fully functional, as it relies in the Locale::Po4a::Xml module. This only defines the translatable tags (<dia:string>), and filters the internal strings (the content of the <dia:diagramdata> tag), not interesting for translation.
