man Locale::Maketext::Lexicon::Msgcat () - Msgcat catalog parser Maketext

NAME

Locale::Maketext::Lexicon::Msgcat - Msgcat catalog parser Maketext

SYNOPSIS

    package Hello::I18N;
    use base 'Locale::Maketext';
    use Locale::Maketext::Lexicon {
        en => ['Msgcat', 'en_US/hello.pl.m'],
    };

    package main;
    my $lh = Hello::I18N->get_handle('en');
    print $lh->maketext(1,2);   # set 1, msg 2
    print $lh->maketext("1,2"); # same thing

DESCRIPTION

This module parses one or more Msgcat catalogs in plain text format, and returns a Lexicon hash, which may be looked up either with a two-argument form (CW$set_id, $msg_id) or as a single string (CW"$set_id,$msg_id").

NOTES

All special characters (CW[, CW] and CW~) in catalogs will be escaped so they lose their magic meanings. That means CW->maketext calls to this lexicon will not take any additional arguments.
