NAME
       genstrings - generate string table from source code

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/genstrings [ -s routine ] [ -o outputDir ] file ...

DESCRIPTION
       The  genstrings	utility	 generates  a  .strings	 file(s) from the C or
       Objective-C (.c or .m) source code file(s) given as the argument(s).  A
       .strings	 file  is  used	 for  localizing  an application for different
       languages,  as  described  under	  "Localization"   in	the   NEXTSTEP
       Developer's Library.

       Source  lines  containing  text of the form LocalString("key", "value",
       comment) will generate an appropriate string  table  entry  on  stdout.
       Normally,    stdout    should	be    directed	 to   a	  file	 named
       Localizable.strings, since this is  where  the  NXLocalString  function
       looks by default for its string table.

       Source  lines  containing  LocalStringFromTable(Table,  "key", "value",
       comment) will generate an appropriate string  table  entry  in  a  file
       named Table.strings.

OPTIONS
       -s routine
	      Substitutes   routine   for   LocalString.    For	  example,  -s
	      MyLocalString   will   catch   calls   to	  MyLocalString	   and
	      MyLocalStringFromTable.

       -o outputDir
	      Specifies what directory the tables should be created in.
