Please see Locale::Maketext::Extract for a list of supported input file formats.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. Similarly for optional arguments.
Files to extract messages from. If not specified, STDIN is assumed.
Get list of input files from FILE.
Add DIRECTORY to list for input files search.
Use NAME.po for output, instead of messages.po.

Disables conversion from Maketext format to Gettext format -- i.e. leave all brackets alone. This is useful if you are also using the Gettext syntax in your program.
Enables GNU gettext interoperability by printing #, perl-maketext-format before each entry that has % variables.
#, perl-maketext-format
