Recursive xgettext?

How can I compile a .po file using xgettext with PHP files with a single command recursively?

My PHP files exist in a hierarchy, and the straight xgettext command doesn't seem to dig down recursively.

Solution

  • Got it:

    find . -iname "*.php" | xargs xgettext

    I was trying to use -exec before, but that would only run one file at a time. This runs them on the bunch.

    Yay Google!
